About this map

The Colorado River serves as the focal point for this 1970s survey, marking the state boundary between California and Arizona. The landscape is defined by the contrast between the low-lying Mohave Valley and the steep slopes of the Dead Mountains to the west. Significant infrastructure for the era is visible, including the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line passing through the settlement of Java, and several industrial markers such as a Compressor Station and a Borrow Pit.
