About this map

Cemetery Ridge and the Gila Bend Mountains dominate this arid landscape in Yuma County, illustrating a region defined by mining exploration and intermittent water sources. The map identifies numerous mining-related features, including the Big M Mine, the Yellow Breast Well, and several Mine Shafts and Adits scattered across the complex terrain. These labels point to a period of mineral prospecting that shaped the local history of the Nottbusch Valley. The presence of several Water Tanks and the namesake Nottbusch Butte underscore the importance of specific landmarks for navigation and survival in the Palomas Plain. To the west, the Clanton Hills are intersected by the Red Raven Road, while drainage patterns such as Deadman Wash and Nottbusch Wash trace the natural path of runoff through the Apache Box.
