2018 Map of Swansea

About this map

Swansea stands as a focal point in this desert landscape, situated between the Rawhide Mountains to the north and the Buckskin Mountains to the south. The area is defined by its mining heritage, evidenced by the presence of Miners Arch near the townsite. The Bill Williams River meanders along the northern boundary, following the dividing line between Mohave and La Paz counties. This river corridor provides a stark contrast to the surrounding arid terrain, marked by notable heights like Clara Peak. Connectivity across this high-relief environment is maintained through a network of unpaved routes, including Swansea Rd, Johnson Ranch Rd, and Lincoln Ranch Rd, which trace the valleys and ridges of this western Arizona mining district.
