1892 Map of Mt. Trumbull

USGS Topo · Published 1927

About this map

The Colorado River and its path through the Grand Canyon anchor this late 19th-century reconnaissance of northwestern Mohave County. Topography from the earlier Powell Survey highlights the dramatic verticality of the Hurricane Cliffs and the isolation of the Uinkaret Plateau. Settlement is nearly non-existent in this era, limited to the outpost at Beaverdam and the vital river crossing at Pierce Ferry. Local history is centered on natural water sources essential for survival and ranching, such as Pakoon Spring, Cane Spring, and Witch Pool. Peaks like Mt Trumbull and Mt Logan rise above the timbered reaches of the Kaibab National Forest, while the southern portion of the map identifies the early boundaries of the Hualpai Indian Reservation.
