2014 Map of Moon Mountain

About this map

Moon Mountain and the northern reaches of the Dome Rock Mountains dominate the eastern half of this La Paz County landscape, where desert elevations rise sharply from the basin floor. To the west, the arid flatlands of Parker Valley transition into a managed agricultural grid, evidenced by the presence of Mesa Drain and Lateral A Seventy-three. This contrast between the natural desert drainage of Tyson Wash and the engineered irrigation channels illustrates the era's ongoing intersection of natural landforms and human land use in the Arizona desert.
