About this map

Hookers Hot Springs is a central landmark in this high-desert region of Cochise County, set against the backdrop of the Winchester Mountains. The 1996 planimetry reveals a landscape defined by its vital water sources and dramatic elevation changes, where features like N-O Spring and V-F Springs serve as essential points in the arid terrain. The northern reaches are dominated by the Coronado National Forest, where the topography rises toward Bald Ridge.

Evidence of local ranching and aviation infrastructure is found at Riggs Serp and the nearby Landing Strip. The map detail follows the complex drainage systems of Bass Canyon and Carruthers (Redrock) Canyon, which carve through the earth toward the broad expanse of Allen Flat in the southeast. This survey provides a clear view of the rural and natural boundaries before 21st-century developments, focusing on the historical basins and canyons such as Terán Basin.
