About this map

The Sierra Bonita Ranch and several other remote outposts anchor this mid-1940s landscape, illustrating the enduring cattle-ranching heritage of the high desert. Situated within the Coronado National Forest, the terrain is defined by the sharp elevations of Jackson Mtn and the Grock Mountains. Water sources are vital landmarks here, from Goodwin Wash in the north to the southern course of Aravaipa Creek, where Cedar Springs and several windmills provided critical support for livestock. Traceable routes like the South Park Trail and Prospect Trail hint at the movement of people and animals through steep canyons such as Cottonwood Canyon and Underwood Canyon. Small-scale mining activity is evidenced by scattered prospects, particularly near Juan Hill, highlighting the diverse yet sparse industrial footprint in the area during this era.
