1967 Map of Peach Springs NE

About this map

The Hualapai Indian Reservation dominates the southern half of this landscape, meeting the southern boundary of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area in a region defined by dramatic vertical relief. The terrain is bifurcated by the winding path of Diamond Creek, which flows through the northeast, supported by local water sources like Diamond Spring. This 1967 field-checked survey reveals a rugged geography where the Mohave and Coconino county line cuts through high plateaus and deep drainage systems. Prominent landmarks such as the Thumb and Diamond Rim overlook a complex network of canyons, including Peach Springs Canyon and the aptly named Hells Canyon. To the east, the heights of Blue Mountain overlook the high desert, while isolated water features like Metuck Tank indicate the vital infrastructure for land management in this arid environment.
