1966 Map of Swansea

About this map

Swansea (Site) and Planet (Site) anchor this mid-1960s survey of a copper mining landscape along the border of Mohave and Yuma counties. The terrain is defined by the Rawhide Mountains and Buckskin Mountains, where the Bill Williams River cuts a deep course through the desert. Industrial history is evident in the remaining Old Railroad Grade and specialized infrastructure like the Retort Oven and Swansea Pumping Station. These features reflect an era of extraction and transport that linked isolated desert camps to broader markets.
