Spirit Mountain is the earthly origin of this tribe whose reservation spans land in Arizona and Nevada. The present boundaries, which stretch along the banks of the Colorado River, cover 22,820 acres in Arizona, 3,862 acres in Nevada, and 6,298 acres in California. The reservation is home to 1,120 people. Agriculture provides the basis for the Fort Mojave economy and 15,000 acres of land are under cultivation. Crops grown include staples like cotton, alfalfa and wheat.

A major attraction is the Colorado River which flows for 17 miles through the Reservation. Tamed by Davis Dam above Laughlin, it presents no threat of flooding and runs narrow and deep between channeled banks from the dam to below Needles, California. Along the way, the river supports a plethora of water-based activities such as fishing, water skiing, jetboarding and water sports.
