1994 Map of Fort Huachuca

About this map

The Fort Huachuca Military Reservation dominates the southeastern portion of this landscape, reflecting a region defined by extensive military, ranching, and mining history. Several large Spanish land grants, including the Luis Maria Baca Grant (Float No 3) and the San Ignacio Del Babocomari Grant, partition the territory between the Huachuca Mountains and the Santa Rita Mountains. The map documents a complex drainage network where the San Pedro River and Santa Cruz River flow north, supporting settlements like Saint David and Pomerene. High-elevation mining activity is evident through the naming of numerous operations such as the California Mine and Santa Cruz Mine. Meanwhile, the transition from rail to road is visible through the presence of the S P RR alongside an Old RR Grade near Fairbank and Charleston.
