2014 Map of Red Hill NE

About this map

Chocolate Mountains dominate the western horizon of this desert landscape, where steep slopes give way to the broad, arid expanse of the Castle Dome Plain. This 2014 survey captures a section of the Sonoran Desert defined by the drainage patterns of Indian Wash, which meanders southward toward the county line. The map records the precise boundary between La Paz Co and Yuma Co, a political line cutting through an otherwise continuous wilderness. Transport through this environment is anchored by the corridor of Us-95, which serves as the primary artery connecting these isolated basins. The topographic detail highlights the transition from the high ridges of the mountains to the alluvial fans and ephemeral watercourses that characterize the lowlands of southwestern Arizona.
