1968 Map of Quartermaster Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Grand Wash Cliffs dominate this portion of Mohave County, where the high plateaus of the Hualapai Indian Reservation drop away toward the Grand Wash. The map documents a landscape defined by water scarcity and cattle ranching infrastructure, noted by the many tanks and springs scattered across the high desert terrain. Notable water sources include Honeymoon Tank, Cedar Spring, and Hells Canyon Spring, providing essential points for livestock in an arid environment. A network of jeep trails and a prominent pipeline traverse the western slopes, connecting landmarks like Duncan and various unnamed prospects. The inclusion of Lost Creek Reservoir and Topside Reservoir suggests mid-century efforts to manage seasonal runoff from the surrounding peaks and canyons.
