1965 Map of Yuma SE

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Agricultural development meets military geography in this mid-1960s survey of the Arizona desert. The western portion of the map is defined by a grid of numbered roads, including 15th Street and 19th Street, supporting a system of irrigation via the Main Canal and A Canal. This structured landscape of wells and fields abruptly transitions to the eastern arid terrain of the Desert Range and the northern reaches of the Yuma landforms. A significant portion of the southeastern quadrant falls within the Luke Air Force Range, where the environment is characterized by open expanse and a few isolated landmarks like a Borrow Pit. A solitary Jeep Trail winds through the southwestern corner, suggesting the limited accessibility of the uncultivated desert areas during this era.
