1988 Map of Sunshine Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Sunshine Ridge dominates the central topography of this Mohave County landscape, dividing the arid plains of Wild Band Valley from the rugged eastern breaks. The map documents a ranching and water-management system essential for survival in this high-desert environment during the late 20th century. A series of catchment points and reservoirs, including Wild Band Reservoir, CCC Trail Reservoir, and the Tom Lamb Reservoir in the southeast, are strategically placed to capture seasonal runoff. These water sources are connected by a network of unimproved roads and trails that traverse the base of Cedar Knoll and follow natural drainage patterns like Bulrush Wash and Yellowstone Wash. The presence of the Jackson Reservoir near the southern boundary further illustrates the infrastructure required to support livestock in this isolated pocket of the Arizona Strip.
