About this map

The San Bernardino Valley dominates this mid-1980s landscape, flanked by the eastern rises of the Pedregosa Mountains. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage channels, including Danger Wash, Silver Creek, and Hackberry Wash, which reveal the hydrological patterns of this arid Cochise County region. A prominent volcanic feature, Cinder Hill, stands as a central landmark within the valley floor.

Evidence of historical transportation and infrastructure is visible through the Old Railroad Grade cutting across the northern reaches and the winding route through Deadmans. These features, alongside scattered water sources like a lone Well and the drainage of Black Draw, provide essential context for understanding land use and movement through this part of the Arizona borderlands during the late twentieth century.
