1990 Map of Cimarron Peak

About this map

The Papago Indian Reservation defines this landscape in southern Arizona, where desert plains meet sharp rises. The terrain is structured by the Sauceda Mountains to the north and the prominent Cimarron Peak to the east, overlooking the broad expanse of Kaka Valley. This 1990 provisional sheet captures the area's sparse but significant human footprint, featuring the settlement of Emika and the archaeological location at Tatai Toak (Site). A small Cem (cemetery) is noted near the southern foothills, providing a specific point of interest for genealogists and researchers. Drainage is dominated by Hickiwan Wash, which threads through the Hickiwan Valley, indicating the seasonal water patterns that have historically shaped movement and settlement in this arid environment.
