About this map

Yarnell sits at the foot of the Weaver Mountains, anchoring a region defined by high desert peaks and isolated ranching and mining outposts. This 2011 survey illustrates the settlement patterns of southwestern Yavapai County, where the desert landscape is punctuated by water sources like Yarnell Spring and Blackwater Spring. The presence of Bricks Windmill and Millers Windmill reflects the ongoing reliance on groundwater for livestock in this arid terrain.

Historically significant landmarks like Rich Hill and the settlement of Stanton indicate the area's background in prospecting and desert trade. Routes such as W Old Stage Rd and Octave Rd connect these distant points, winding through significant topographic features like Lion Peak and Antelope Peak. The map provides a detailed view of the infrastructure supporting these remote communities, including the Yarnell Post Office.
