2014 Map of Moon Mountain NE

About this map

Parker sits at the northeastern edge of this desert landscape, serving as a primary point of reference for the surrounding arid terrain. The map is defined by the significant elevation of Mesquite Mtn in the north-central region, which gives way to the broad expanse of the La Posa Plain as the topography flattens toward the south and east. Land use in this corner of Arizona is heavily structured by the Public Land Survey System, with the clear gridded townships of t8n r20w, t7n r19w, and others providing a formal framework over the natural geography. Transportation is sparse, primarily represented by E Mccabe Rd, which cuts westward through the lower foothills. This 2014 survey documents the area's characteristic transition from high desert peaks to the open alluvial plains common to the Lower Colorado River Valley region.
