1957 Map of Yuha Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The arid borderlands of the Yuha Basin are captured in detail during the late 1950s, revealing a landscape defined by natural geological formations and sparse transit routes. The presence of significant Shell Beds and prominent landmarks like Sunrise Butte and the Yuha Buttes illustrate the prehistoric lakebed history of this Colorado Desert region. Transportation across the basin is limited to a network of primitive routes, most notably the Yuha Cutoff and various Jeep Trails that navigate between West Mesa and the expansive Pinto Wash.
