1988 Map of Mud Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Mud Hills dominate this portion of the Mojave Desert, where a network of deeply etched drainages reveals a complex geological history. The area is defined by the striking Rainbow Basin and its surrounding canyons, including Fossil Canyon and Coon Canyon, which suggest a landscape rich in paleontological potential. Human activity in this arid environment is marked by scattered resource extraction sites, with several prospects, a Quarry, and a Mine noted across the terrain. Transportation is limited to rugged tracks like Coolgardie Camp Rd, and the Owl Canyon Campground serves as a lone outpost for travelers. To the south, the Waterman Hills rise above the basin, while a Radio Facility near the eastern boundary highlights the intersection of modern infrastructure with this remote terrain.
