1965 Map of Horn

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor defines the development of this arid landscape, where the settlement of Horn and the nearby Horn Cotton Gin anchor the local economy. Situated in the San Cristobal Valley north of the Gila River, the area shows a clear transition from the rugged Palomas Mountains in the northwest to the agricultural and transit-heavy lowlands. To the north, the England Mine suggests earlier mineral interest, while the presence of the Fort Horn Monument points toward the historical significance of this desert passage. The drainage of Hoodoo Wash cuts across the terrain, illustrating the typical seasonal water patterns of Yuma County. Scattered infrastructure such as a Landing Strip, Storage Bins, and various gravel pits reveal a mid-century landscape managed for both transport and local industry.
