About this map

Hualapai Indian Reservation lands dominate this mid-century topographic record, centering on the community of Peach Springs. The landscape is defined by the convergence of deep drainage systems, including Peach Springs Canyon and Truxton Canyon, which channel the region's scarce water toward the northwest. The presence of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line running through Truxton Canyon underscores the vital transportation corridor that has long connected this part of northern Arizona to the broader western rail network.

Local infrastructure for the tribal headquarters is well-documented, featuring the Miller Sch, a Radio Tower, and the Peach Springs Airport. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Cem and the settlement at Graves, along with several outlying water sources such as Red Spring, Mulberry Spring, and Surprise Springs. The map also captures remnants of local industry, such as a Borrow Pit and a Prospect, alongside rural landmarks like a Corral and Buck and Doe Road.
