1981 Map of Cumero Canyon

About this map

Mining operations and ranching land define the landscape of the Patagonia Mountains and the drainage of Sonoita Creek during the early 1980s. This survey records a transition from water-focused recreation at Patagonia Lake State Park to the industrial history found in the canyons. The eastern slopes are dotted with numerous workings like the Three R Mine, Flux Mine, and Golden Rose Mine, while land grants like the Luis Maria Baca Float No. 3 reflect the region's complex history of colonial land claims. Aviation infrastructure is prominent with the Nogales International Airport and its Airway Beacon serving the border region. Family ranching legacies are visible through the Circle Z Ranch and T 4 Ranch, situated alongside countless cattle tanks and wells including Paja Verde Tank and Javelina Well.
