1990 Map of Ajo North

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Valley of the Ajo dominates this landscape, defined by the industrial mining operations and the presence of the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range. To the south, the map details the residential and recreational infrastructure serving the community near Ajo, including the Ajo Country Club, a Trailer Park, and an Athletic Field. Large-scale mining is evident through the massive impoundments of the North Tailings Pond, East Tailings Pond, and South Tailings Pond, which contrast with the natural drainages of Tenmile Wash and Sikort Chuapo Wash. Small settlements like Gibson, Childs, and Childs Ranch appear alongside landmarks such as the Ajo Municipal Airport and a local Cem. The transition from the Batamote Mountains into the valley highlights a desert environment managed for both military use and mineral extraction.
