1990 Map of Swansea

About this map

The Swansea Old RR Grade cuts through a landscape defined by industrial history and the arid boundary between the Buckskin Mountains and the Rawhide Mountains. This 1990 provisional map documents the remnants of the copper mining era at Swansea, where the townsite is surrounded by numerous Prospects, Mine Shafts, and an unnamed Cem. The settlement’s infrastructure is clearly visible, including the Swansea Pumping Sta positioned along the Bill Williams River to the north, highlighting the critical importance of water transport in this desert environment. Further exploration of the terrain reveals natural landmarks like Clara Peak and a Natural Arch, while an Aboveground Pipeline and the Lincoln Ranch Road indicate more contemporary use of the land. The presence of both Mohave and La Paz county lines adds another layer of administrative history to this former mining hub.
