1941 Map of Arivaca

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Las Guijas Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in southern Arizona, where a sparse network of cattle ranches and hard-rock mines defined the local economy during the early 1940s. The settlement of Arivaca serves as the focal point, situated near the confluence of Arivaca Creek and Puertocito Wash. This era shows a transition in the mining industry, with several major operations such as the Liberty Mine, Colorado Clark Mine, and San Luis Mine already listed as abandoned by the time of the survey.
