About this map

The Mohawk Valley in the mid-1950s was a landscape defined by an intensive irrigation network and military activity. The Gila River provides the natural foundation for the valley, but the presence of the Mohawk Canal and the Southern Pacific Canal reveals the sophisticated water management required to support the local agricultural community. To the north, the terrain transitions into the desolate reaches of the Yuma Test Station and the rising peaks of the Castle Dome Mts. Local infrastructure and settlement patterns are concentrated around the village of Roll, which serves as a hub for the surrounding area. The presence of the Mohawk Valley Sch and Terry Ranch indicates a established ranching and farming society, while numerous features like Salt Well and various Gravel Pit sites show the practical use of the arid land.
