About this map

Parker Valley defines this stretch of the lower Colorado River corridor, where a sophisticated network of irrigation infrastructure supports the regional landscape. The Main Canal and various secondary waterways, including Lateral Nineteen R and Feeder Drain Number Five, segment the valley floor, illustrating the complex water management essential to the area's development. This engineering is framed by the natural boundary of the Colorado River and the rugged elevations of Mesquite Mtn to the southeast.

Civilian activity is concentrated around the established community of Parker and the riverside settlement of Big River. The map meticulously records the transition from the irrigated lowlands to the arid uplands of Fivemile Hill. Key transit routes like Az-95 and local paths such as Levee Rd and Agnes Wilson Rd provide a clear view of the 2014 rural road grid and its relation to the Bouse Wash drainage system.
