2021 Map of New Water Well

About this map

Ranegras Plain dominates the northern expanse of this La Paz County landscape, where the arid environment is defined by drainage patterns and critical water points. The namesake New Water Well is located in the southwestern corner, a vital site for desert travel and survival in this corner of Arizona. Crossing from north to south, Alamo Wash serves as the primary hydrological feature, collecting runoff from the high ridges that separate the plain from the southern basins. Transportation in the area is anchored by Vicksburg Rd, which runs along the eastern edge of the quadrangle. Other isolated water features like Crowder Tank punctuate the northern desert floor, illustrating the sparse but essential network of water management used for ranching and transit in this high-relief terrain.
