1957 Map of Coyote Wells

About this map

Ocotillo and the namesake settlement of Coyote Wells anchor the northern landscape of this desert terrain during the mid-1950s. The region is defined by the San Diego and Arizona Eastern railroad and the Yuha Cutoff, which traverse a rugged expanse marked by intricate drainage systems like Coyote Wash and the Yuha Basin. Cultural history is noted at the Vista de Anza Historical Marker, while small outposts such as Bennie, Mac, and Glen appear near the southern reaches where Davies Valley and Pinto Canyon approach the international border at the United States Mexico line. The presence of several prospects, a shaft, and a Microwave Relay Sta suggests a landscape of both mineral exploration and early mid-century telecommunications infrastructure stretching toward the California Baja California boundary.
