1965 Map of Aztec NW

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Gila River corridor defines this mid-1960s landscape, where the agricultural infrastructure of Yuma County meets the arid expanses of Hyder Valley and Park Valley. The map documents a transition in land use, showing the historic Palomas (Site) near a collection of Ruins along the riverbank, contrasted by the modern presence of the White Wing Ranch and its associated Landing Strip. Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the Farmers Canal, South Gila Ditch, and Gila Ditch that draw from the river to support local ranching.
