About this map

Penitentiary Mtn and the surrounding high country of the Aquarius Mountains define this landscape in Mohave County. This modern topographic study reveals a complex network of seasonal water sources and livestock infrastructure essential to the region's ranching heritage. Vital water points such as Penitentiary Spring, Ray Cowden Tank, and Alkali Spring are scattered across the terrain, indicating the importance of water management in these arid basins. The map captures the distinct topography of Cornwall Basin and Cedar Basin, where drainage systems like Knight Cr and Trout Cr carve through the foothills. Other prominent landmarks include the high peaks of Snow Mtn and Farrel Mtn, alongside the flat-topped Pony Mesa, providing a comprehensive view of the geographic transitions within this part of the Arizona desert.
