2014 Map of Sunshine Ridge

About this map

Sunshine Ridge and the surrounding high desert of Mohave County are defined here by a vital network of water catchment systems and seasonal drainages. During this early 21st-century period, the landscape’s utility is centered on man-made features like Cañon Reservoir, Wild Band Reservoir, and CCC Trail Reservoir, which signify the area's importance for range management and livestock. These small water sources are strategically positioned along the primary transit corridor of Mt Trumbull Rd, which cuts through the center of the sheet. The terrain is marked by significant geographic depressions including Bulrush Canyon and Wild Band Valley, which funnel seasonal runoff into the Bulrush Wash. This map provides a clear record of the essential infrastructure required to sustain activity in this arid region, from the Tom Lamb Reservoir to the depths of Grama Canyon.
