Cactus Pass, Mohave Co., Hinton Map, 1878; Smith, 1879. Pass through Cottonwood range on Hardyville-Prescott road, west of Cross Mountain. Wheeler was here January 30, 1855, and says: "From the peculiar vegetation, we give it the name of Cactus Pass. We can look easterly through it and see the bulk of Cross mountain and the Aquarius range. The pass is a deep gorge in a high range of granite mountains.", [13]: 70
^"There is also no water at the Tanks, and canteens will have to be filled at the Cottonwoods. The parties who started to dig a well at the Tanks sunk it about twenty five feet, when they found the rock so hard, that they abandoned the place in disgust, after having placed a broken whiskey bottle in the bottom of the well, evidently as a sign that the thirsty traveler need not for anything to drink in that locality.
