2018 Map of Mount Trumbull NE

About this map

Tuweep stands as a focal point in this high-desert landscape of the Arizona Strip, positioned where the geological transitions between massive plateaus define the terrain. The map illustrates the convergence of the Uinkaret Plateau and the Kanab Plateau, with the Uinkaret Mountains rising to the southwest. This area is characterized by significant vertical relief, most notably the Toroweap Cliffs and the northern reaches of Grand Canyon National Park. Water management is critical in this arid environment, evidenced by isolated features like Little Toroweap Reservoir, Witch Pool, and the John Schmutz Tank. These sparse water sources and the network of unpaved routes such as Co RD 5 provide a window into the cattle ranching and homesteading history of Mohave County, where life followed the contours of the Toroweap Valley and the drainage of Broad Canyon.
