1930 Map of Hyder

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad cuts across the arid landscape of the Palomas Plain, serving as the primary corridor for commerce and travel through this remote stretch of the Arizona desert. At the center of this movement is Hyder, a small desert settlement established along the tracks. The map illustrates a transitional period when travel relied heavily on historical routes like the Old Yuma-Phoenix Road and the Palomas Harquahala Road, which provided vital links between isolated outposts.
