1950 Map of Cochise Head

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Old Fort Bowie (Ruins) sits as a quiet historical anchor at Apache Pass, within the expansive Fort Bowie Military Reservation Bdy (Aban'd). This 1950s survey documents a landscape of high desert transition, where the Dos Cabezas Mountains meet the northern reaches of the Coronado National Forest. The map captures the remote ranching and mining economy of the era, noting scattered sites like the Silverstrike Mine and the Marble Quarry. Local family history is preserved through labels for the Riggs Home Ranch, Lawhon Ranch, and Shafer Ranch. Further south, the iconic geology of the Chiricahua National Monument is detailed, including Massai Point and the Sugarloaf Mtn lookout, while the striking profile of Cochise Head dominates the eastern skyline above Wood Canyon.
