1983 Map of Cima

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The massive Cima Dome geological formation dominates this desert landscape, characterized by its remarkably symmetrical, gently sloping terrain. At the eastern edge of the survey, the high-desert settlement of Cima serves as a critical point along the Union Pacific railroad line, which cuts diagonally across the arid floor. This transportation corridor connects smaller outposts like Chase and Elora to the larger rail network. Water management is a primary feature of this environment, as evidenced by the distribution of localized catchments such as White Rock Tank and Eightmile Tank. These water sources, along with various Corrals, reflect the area's history of range livestock management. Wide drainage systems including Kelso Wash and Cedar Wash illustrate the complex desert hydrology where runoff from Wildcat Butte and surrounding peaks shapes the valley floor.
