About this map

Aguirre Peak anchors this corner of the Sonoran desert during the late 1970s, where the high ridges of the Baboquivari Mountains drop sharply into the Baboquivari Valley. Located within the Papago Indian Reservation, the landscape is defined by its arid drainage systems, including Chutum Vaya Wash and Coyote Wash. The map documents traditional land use and habitation sites through labels like Kuit Vaya (Site) and Chui Vaya (Site), alongside a lone Cem (cemetery) and several wells such as Bear Well. These water sources and seasonal washes were critical for life in this environment. The presence of several Prospect markings and a network of unimproved roads and a Jeep Trail suggest a history of exploration and ranching, with a Corral and various dams marking the human attempt to manage the desert's scarce resources.
