1979 Map of Russell Spring

About this map

Upper Hurricane Valley and Lower Hurricane Valley define this portion of the Arizona Strip, where the arid landscape is shaped by the drainage of Hurricane Wash and Sunshine Draw. The 1970s terrain is marked by a complex system of water management, evidenced by numerous man-made catchments like J W Spendlove Reservoir, McCullan Reservoir, and the uniquely named Chic Pond. These features, alongside Childers Well, speak to the critical importance of water for livestock and settlement in this remote desert environment. High ground is dominated by prominent landforms such as Diamond Butte and Twin Butte, while Russell Spring provides a rare natural water source tucked beneath the rising elevation of the Cliffs. The presence of Sinkhole Reservoir and Gyp Reservoir further highlights the distinct geology of the Mohave County backcountry.
