About this map

Dos Cabezas anchors this wartime survey of the high desert and mountains of Cochise County. The landscape is defined by the intersection of early 20th-century mining and cattle ranching, where the northern peaks are marked by the Mascot Mine and Elma Mine. Settled holdings like the Arrowhead Ranch and SS Ranch stand out against the drainage networks of Ideal Draw and Cienega Draw, while the presence of Airway Beacon 4955 signals the area's importance to aviation in the early 1940s. The topography is dominated by the Sulphur Hills and prominent summits including Simmons Peak and Government Peak. Significant water sources such as Muskhog Spr and Apache Spr provided essential survival points in this arid environment, illustrating the sparse but vital infrastructure of the region prior to mid-century development.
