1990 Map of Point of the Pintas

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Cabeza Prieta Wilderness and National Wildlife Refuge dominates the southern half of this landscape, where the Devil Hills and Tule Desert meet the rising slopes of the Sierra Pinta. This remote stretch of Yuma County is defined by its transition from the wide, drainage-carved Mohawk Valley to the rocky outcrops of Point of the Pintas. In the north, the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range marks a significant military footprint on the land, while a solitary Mine Shaft and the 4WD trails snaking through What Fo Canyon and Bean Pass suggest a history of prospecting and desert navigation. The map illustrates the complex intersection of military training grounds and protected wildlife corridors along the Mohawk Wash, highlighting a region where human activity is strictly bounded by environmental and national security designations.
