2018 Map of Palomas Mountains NW

About this map

Tank Mountains dominate the southern half of this desert landscape in Yuma County, rising sharply from the surrounding terrain. To the north, the Palomas Plain provides a stark contrast, where the intermittent drainage of Hoodoo Wash carves a winding path across the arid flats. This 2018 survey captures the region's sparse infrastructure, defined largely by the Norton To Harquahala Rd, which serves as a primary north-south corridor through the open country. The map illustrates a classic Basin and Range topography, where steep, rocky slopes meet broad alluvial plains, detailing the township and range boundaries that organize this remote stretch of the Arizona desert.
