1996 Map of Hay Mountain

About this map

Stockton Hill and the southeastern reaches of the Dragoon Mts anchor this late-twentieth-century landscape in Cochise County. The map captures a high-desert environment defined by ranching and mineral exploration, evidenced by working outposts like Reeves Ranch and H O Davis Ranch. Water remains the central challenge and defining feature of the area, with numerous infrastructure markers such as Deep Well Windmill, Mesquite Windmill, and Thompson Tank scattered across the arid terrain. The legacy of prospecting is visible on the eastern slopes of Signal Hill, where the map identifies Gold Camp alongside various unnamed Shafts and Prospects. A complex network of drainage systems, including Stockton Draw and Government Draw, shapes the topography leading toward the prominent rise of Hay Mountain in the southeast.
