1958 Map of Gleeson SE

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Sulphur Spring Valley dominates this 1958 survey, showing a landscape defined by cattle ranching and early transportation corridors in Cochise County. The map captures the infrastructure of the high desert, where named water sources like Ernest Tank, Toms Tank, and Rattlesnake Tank were essential for livestock. In the southern portion, the Mule Mountains rise abruptly, cut by deep drainages such as Dixie Canyon and Johnson Canyon. The presence of the Old Railroad Grade running north to south reflects the region's evolving transit history, while the 47 Ranch and Dixie Canyon Ranch represent the established ranching families of the era. The terrain is crisscrossed by unpaved tracks including High Lonesome Road and Cowan Road, illustrating the sparse but deliberate network of late 1950s Arizona backcountry.
