2018 Map of Red Hill NE

About this map

The Chocolate Mountains dominate the western portion of this 2018 survey, their landforms defined by steep relief and alluvial fans that spill into the desert basin. This landscape is a characteristic section of the Sonoran Desert in western Arizona, where drainage systems like Indian Wash cut through the terrain toward the south. The southern reaches of the map flatten into the Castle Dome Plain, a broad expanse that reflects the transition from mountainous uplift to the open desert floor. This region is marked by its jurisdictional divide, as the La Paz Co Yuma Co line runs north-to-south through the eastern side of the quadrangle. The lack of major human settlements highlights the region's preservation as a land of open washes and high ridges, providing a clear view of the natural topography along the county boundary.
