1990 Map of Cabeza Prieta Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Cabeza Prieta Mountains dominate this 1990 provisional survey, where the overlapping jurisdictions of conservation and military aviation meet in the Sonoran Desert. Centered on the 2,592-foot summit of Cabeza Prieta Peak, the map documents a landscape defined by restricted access and vital water catchments such as Halfway Tank and Cabeza Prieta Tanks. The terrain is divided between the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range and the Cabeza Prieta Wilderness and National Wildlife Refuge, illustrating the dual use of these desert reaches for both tactical training and environmental preservation. Notable topographic features include the A-1 Basin and Surprise Canyon, while the southern portion of the sheet is marked by Tordillo Mountain. This edition reflects the meticulous field checks and aerial revisions of the late 20th century, tracing the narrow transit points like Cabeza Prieta Pass used by those navigating this arid corridor.
