About this map

The Cottonwood Mountains dominate the landscape in this portion of Mohave County, where high-elevation terrain transitions between the Cottonwood Cliffs and the rugged drainage of Wright Canyon. Water sources are critical markers in this arid environment, represented by Little Cottonwood Spring and Red Horn Spring, which likely served as vital stops for early travelers and cattlemen. The network of local roads, such as Dicks Camp Rd and Tobosa Rd, reflects the area's history of ranching and land management. Researchers can trace the elevation changes from the summit of Slate Mtn down through the East Fork Wright Canyon. The map provides a precise view of the Public Land Survey System, showing the township and range lines that structured settlement and grazing rights in this part of Arizona.
