About this map

The Geronimo Surrender Site stands as a focal point of this borderlands landscape, marking a pivotal transition in the American West near the Skeleton Canyon drainage. Located where the Chiricahua Mountains meet the Peloncillo Mountains, the map documents a region defined by high-desert ranching and historic travel routes. The Southern Pacific railroad line cuts through the San Bernardino Valley, passing the settlement of Apache and its nearby Apache Cemetery. To the south and east, the terrain becomes increasingly complex, with family-named holdings like Sloan Ranch and Fairchild Ranch situated near the rugged canyons and the Coronado National Forest boundary. Geologic curiosities such as Paramore Crater and Red Hill punctuate the valley floor, while the Geronimo Trail winds through the southern reaches, tracing the path of earlier migrations and military history.
