1950 Map of Whipple Mts

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Lake Havasu dominates this desert landscape, where the Colorado River was transformed by mid-century water projects. The map details the emergence of recreational and industrial infrastructure along the water's edge, including the Havasu Airpark and Site Six, adjacent to the protected waters of the Havasu National Wildlife Refuge. Further inland, the complex topography of the Whipple Mountains is punctuated by numerous mining sites, many of which were already noted as inactive by 1950.
