1966 Map of Florence NE

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Magma Arizona railroad cuts across this arid landscape in Pinal County, tracing a path through a region defined by water management and resource extraction during the mid-1960s. The map reveals an intricate network of artificial water sources essential for desert life and livestock, such as Mormon Tank, Superior Tank, and El Molino Tank. Remote infrastructure is prominent, including a Landing Strip and a significant pipeline that runs parallel to the rail line. To the east, the topography shifts toward the rising desert uplands of Cottonwood Canyon and the prominent Dozer Hill. This survey documents a working landscape where early desert wells like Desert Well No 1 and Desert Well No 2 supported ranching or industrial activities alongside scattered gravel pits and numerous springs tucked into the canyons.
