2011 Map of Rawhide Wash

About this map

Rawhide Mountains anchor the southern portion of this desert terrain in Mohave County, where the landscape is defined by complex drainage networks and isolated peaks. Water management and topographic landmarks are central to this 2011 survey, featuring Potts Tank and the expansive Ester Basin in the northwest. The map documents a rugged interior dominated by Miller Mountain and Fools Peak, showing how the land is carved by seasonal watercourses like Rawhide Wash and Maggie Wash. These washes converge near the geological cut of Maggie Canyon, illustrating the natural conduits for flash floods in an arid environment. For researchers of western land use, the inclusion of Co HWY 15 provides the primary transit context for this unpopulated stretch of Arizona high desert.
