1944 Map of Fisher Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Southern Pacific railroad tracks dominate the central corridor of this Southeastern Arizona landscape, cutting through the critical Railroad Pass between the Graham Mountains and the Dos Cabezas Mountains. This mid-century survey captures a network of high-desert ranching and transit during the Second World War era, punctuated by isolated settlements like Raso, Luzena, and Cholla. The presence of an inactive C O C Camp and several named cattle operations, such as Ten Ranch and the Flying W Ranch, illustrates the transition of land use in the Sulphur Spring Valley and the surrounding foothills of the Crook National Forest. Significant drainage systems like Sycamore Wash and Gold Gulch trace the complex hydrology of the Fisher Hills, while historic highways U.S. 666 and Ariz. 86 parallel the rail line, marking the primary arteries of regional commerce and travel.
