About this map

Pakoon Springs serves as a critical water source in this arid corner of the Mojave Desert within Mohave County. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, where the steep profile of The Cockscomb and the high elevation of Cottonwood Ridge overlook a network of drainage systems. These include the prominent Pakoon Wash and Grand Wash, which channel seasonal runoff through the desert floor.

Remote desert travel is mapped via Pakoon Spring Rd and Co Hwy 111, providing the primary access through several townships. Aside from the namesake springs, other desert water features like Eds Spring, Burro Spring, and Pakoon Tank illustrate the sparse but vital hydrologic points necessary for land use in this part of Arizona. The map also captures named topographic landmarks such as Negrohead and the deep incisions of Squaw Canyon and Tank Canyon.
