About this map

The Gila River Indian Reservation dominates this 1950s landscape, centered on the ancient archeological site of Snaketown and the community of Bapchule. The Gila River meanders across the central portion of the sheet, bordered by an extensive Levee system designed to manage the floodplain. This survey captures a rural landscape in transition, where traditional irrigation and riverside settlements exist alongside modern infrastructure like Memorial Airfield and the burgeoning suburban layout of a circular Golf Course in the northeast corner.
