2014 Map of Warm Springs

About this map

Warm Springs anchors this high-desert landscape in Mohave County, where the eastern slopes of the Black Mountains descend toward the Sacramento Valley. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, featuring prominent landmarks like Black Mesa and the distinct peaks of Ute Mtn and the Ute Mountains. This area of the Mojave Desert is characterized by its vital water sources, including Antelope Spring and Alkali Spring, which have historically dictated movement and survival in this arid environment. The drainage system of Warm Springs Wash and the surrounding Warm Springs Canyon illustrate the natural pathways through the complex topography of the range. The map provides a clear view of the township and range survey lines that impose an order on this rugged desert territory, revealing a landscape where topography and rare water sources remain the primary features.
