1968 Map of Cat Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Tucson Mountains rise sharply in this late-1960s survey, illustrating the desert landscape just before significant suburban sprawl began to move westward from Tucson. The western edge of the city is centered around medical and academic institutions such as St Marys Hospital and the University of Arizona Geochronology Laboratories, while the rugged terrain to the west remains largely preserved within Tucson Mountain Park. This survey captures the transition from urban density to desert wilderness, marked by notable peaks like Golden Gate Mountain and the strategic Gates Pass.
