1958 Map of Double Adobe

About this map

Sulphur Springs Valley defines the character of this landscape in the late 1950s, showing a transition between ranching lands and early aviation infrastructure. The map centers on the small settlement of Double Adobe, situated near the intersection of the Elfrida Cutoff. The drainage of Whitewater Draw meanders through the terrain, a critical water source for the surrounding cattle country. This survey, based on 1956 photography, documents the rural development of Cochise County before significant modernization, including the Forrest Airport in the south and private holdings like the Lazy KJ Ranch. The grid of sections and township lines reveals the organized land distribution of this arid basin, where the proximity to the border and local drainage patterns dictated the placement of every homestead and airstrip.
