Havasu

Havasu belongs to the eastern Mojave Desert, near the Providence Mountains, known as Avi-kwe-havasu in Indigenous place-name records. The range rises above a dry country of valleys and scattered water sources. Chemehuevi, a Southern Paiute people, ranged through the Mojave between the Colorado River and mountains farther west. Their routes linked the resources and significant places of this desert landscape across considerable distances.
