About this map

Lake Havasu dominates the eastern edge of this mid-century survey, where the Colorado River marks the desert border between California and Arizona. The landscape is a stark contrast between the water-based developments of the Havasu National Wildlife Refuge and the dry, mineral-rich interiors of the Whipple Mountains. This era shows early recreational and infrastructure footprints at Havasu Airpark and the Needles Boat Landing, while the presence of the Metropolitan Water District Tunnel Aqueduct underscores the region's role in Southern California's water distribution.
