2011 Map of Powerline Well

USGS Topo · Published 2011

About this map

The Central Arizona Project Aqueduct cuts diagonally through this arid section of La Paz County, representing a massive undertaking of modern hydraulic engineering in the Southwest. The terrain is characterized by the Cactus Plain, where water sources like Powerline Well were essential landmarks for desert travelers. The map shows the remote settlement of Midway at a junction of desert tracks, including Lincoln Ranch Rd and Swansea Rd. These routes, along with Swansea Mine Rd and Parker-Swansea Rd, provide evidence of the region's historic connection to mining activities in the surrounding mountains, where old trails were eventually formalized into the primitive road network seen in this 2011 survey.
