1950 Map of Cochise Head

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Old Fort Bowie (Ruins) sits at the strategic bottleneck of Apache Pass, marking a landscape defined by 19th-century military history and early ranching. This 1950s survey shows the Fort Bowie Military Reservation Boundary (Aban'd) spanning the rugged height of the Dos Cabezas Mountains, where miners sought fortune at the Silverstrike Mine and Goodwin. The transition from frontier conflict to conservation is evident in the southern half of the map, which includes the northern reaches of the Chiricahua National Monument.
