Hualapai Mountain Park is the oldest park in Mohave County. The parks early history can be traced back as far as the 1800’s. As documented in the original 1937 history portion of the Hualapai Mountain Park Master Plan, in 1871, just outside the park’s boundary, was the headquarters for Lieutenant George Wheeler as he conducted one of the earliest Government Surveys in the vicinity. As shown in Exhibit 1, Lt. Wheeler explored and re-surveyed land west of the 100th meridian from the years 1871 to 1879.

The 1937 Park Master Plan, states how in 1871-Lt. Wheeler documented that the Hualapai Mountain District was first known as the Sacramento District. Lt. Wheeler reported that the early parties were driven out by Indians and that it was not until 1871 prospectors were able to re-enter the Hualapai Mountains when mining operations were deemed safe. Lt. Wheeler’s cabin stood in its original location for over 50 years and was still standing during the beginning of Hualapai Mountain Park in 1937.
