1943 Map of Dos Cabezas

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Dos Cabezas anchors this southeastern Arizona survey, situated at the base of the mountains bearing the same name. Surveyed in the early 1940s, the map reveals a landscape defined by mining activity and ranching outposts. Hard-rock mining operations like the Elma Mine and the Mascot Mine are positioned high in the peaks near Mineral Park, while the broader terrain is marked by named summits including Government Peak and Simmons Peak. The transition from the steep peaks to the desert floor is evidenced by numerous canyons and draws such as Mescal Can and Mogul Draw, which feed into the wide Sulphur Spring Valley. Windmills and tanks scattered across the valley floor, alongside the Arrowhead Ranch and SS Ranch, highlight the importance of water management in this arid cattle-country environment during the mid-twentieth century.
