1997 Map of Chiricahua Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Chiricahua Wilderness dominates this high-altitude landscape in the late 1990s, centered on the towering summit of Chiricahua Peak. The map reveals a complex network of canyons and peaks, including Monte Vista Peak and its Lookout Tower, which served as critical vantage points for forest management. The southern portion of the sheet showcases the recreational and utilitarian infrastructure within Coronado National Forest, such as the Camp Rucker Campground and the Sewage Disposal Ponds near Rucker Creek. Numerous springs like Mormon Spring, Bear Wallow Spring, and Booger Spring indicate a rugged terrain where water sources were essential for both wildlife and travelers. This survey illustrates the concentration of backcountry camps and trails, including Rucker Forest Camp and the Bathtub Campground, tucked into the folds of Bear Canyon and Price Canyon before the turn of the millennium.
