Colorado River waters define the border between California and Arizona as they pass through the Vidal Valley and Parker Valley. This 2015 data reflects a highly managed agricultural and riparian landscape, where the main river channel is flanked by an intricate network of irrigation features including Main Canal, Lateral Nineteen R, and Lateral Twenty-seven R-25. These engineered waterways support the surrounding fields, contrasting with the dry topography of the Riverside Mountains and the seasonal drainage of Vidal Wash.
