1959 Map of Standard Wash

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Manitowoc Mine and El Campo Mine are prominent markers of resource extraction in this arid landscape near the Colorado River. The terrain is defined by the seasonal drainage of Standard Wash as it cuts toward the shoreline of Havasu Lake. The map reveals a complex intersection of land management and natural boundaries, including the Havasu National Wildlife Refuge and the Chemehuevi Indian Res Bdy. Local water sources like Screwbean Spring and Gold Spring provide critical landmarks amidst the Aubrey Hills and the rising slopes of the Bill Williams Mountains. This 1950s survey documents a network of primitive transportation, including a Jeep Trail and the Dutch Flat Road, highlighting the era's reliance on rugged access routes for mining and exploration in the borderlands between Arizona and California.
