1996 Map of East of Buck Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Cabeza Prieta Mountains dominate the southern landscape of this 1996 survey, where the high peaks and ridge lines meet the expansive Tule Desert to the east. This region is defined by overlapping layers of federal land management, reflecting the dual-purpose nature of the Arizona borderlands. Much of the northern portion is occupied by the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range, a vast military training ground that transitions into the protected conservation lands of the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge. The map illustrates the striking intersection of the desert floor in the Mohawk Valley with the protected wilderness zones. The Wilderness and Wildlife Refuge Boundary serves as a critical marker between military airspace use and the preserved habitat of the Cabeza Prieta Wilderness, capturing a snapshot of the Sonoran Desert's complex administration at the end of the century.
