1968 Map of Mt. Tipton SE

About this map

The high desert of Mohave County is defined here by the stark meeting of the Cerbat Mountains and the broad Hualapai Valley (Depression). Surveyed in the late 1960s, the map documents a landscape where survival depends on dispersed water sources like Big Well, Cane Spring, and White Tank. The transportation network is sparse, centered on the historic Stockton Hill Road and the route leading toward Pierce Ferry Road. Topography is dominated by the steep drainage of Tipton Canyon and the seasonal paths of Twentysix Wash and Truxton Wash, which carve through the arid basin. This map serves as a detailed record of the desert's physical infrastructure before later regional development, focusing on the essential wells and tanks that once supported ranching and transit in this part of Arizona.
