1979 Map of Bowie Mtn North

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Fort Bowie Ruins, situated within the Fort Bowie National Historic Site, serves as the primary historical anchor for this late 1970s survey. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the Dos Cabezas Mountains and the Chiricahua Mountains at the strategically vital Apache Pass. Water sources like Apache Spring, Goodwin Spring, and Indian Spring were critical for sustaining early travel and settlement in this arid environment. The map details a ranching and mining economy, evidenced by the Ninemile Ranch, Hyl Ranch, and the Silverstrike Mine. A network of Jeep Trails and unnamed pipelines weave through Emigrant Canyon and Siphon Canyon, illustrating how modern infrastructure was integrated into the difficult terrain of the Old Military Reservation Boundary.
