1979 Map of Russell Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Hurricane Cliffs dominate this portion of the Arizona Strip, creating a massive geological divide between the Upper Hurricane Valley and Lower Hurricane Valley. The landscape is defined by the management of scarce water resources in a dry environment, evidenced by an extensive network of named ponds and reservoirs. Key features include the Sinkhole Reservoir, Sheep Pockets Reservoir, and the J W Spendlove Reservoir. Human impact is visible through developments like Childers Well and the Iverson Detention Dam, which represent the ranching and land-management efforts of the mid-20th century. The namesake Russell Spring sits at the base of the cliffs, serving as a vital point of interest for local history and geography. Elevated landmarks like Diamond Butte and Twin Butte provide distinct navigational markers across this remote Mohave County terrain.
