1964 Map of Coyote Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Continental Divide runs through this corner of the southwestern desert, following the high ground of the Brockman Hills and Coyote Hills. The landscape is dominated by the Playas Valley, where seasonal drainage systems like Pride Draw and South Pyramid Draw cut through the arid terrain. Human presence is defined by ranching and resource management, with scattered infrastructure supporting livestock in a harsh environment. Remote outposts like the Bertoglio-Merrill Ranch and Diamond A Ranch rely on a network of water sources, including the Lone Hill Windmill and various cattle tanks such as Little East Tank. This 1960s survey also notes mineral exploration near the southern boundary at the X Prospect, reflecting the small-scale mining efforts common in the borderlands. A single Pipeline cuts across the valley floor, marking a modern utility corridor through the traditional cattle country.
