2011 Map of Vicksburg

About this map

Vicksburg and the surrounding basin of the Ranegras Plain define this desert landscape in western Arizona. The 2011 survey documents a modern infrastructure network where the Central Arizona Project Aqueduct cuts across the northern terrain, crossing over natural drainages like Calcite Wash and Granite Wash. Small clusters of development appear at Vicksburg Junction and Desert Wells, while the southern corridor is marked by the settlement of New Hope. The map's grid is dominated by straight-line desert roads, including Mcvay Rd and Vicksburg Rd, which provide access through the arid flats. This geography illustrates the continued reliance on managed water systems and highway connectivity in a region shaped by ephemeral watercourses such as Bouse Wash.
