1968 Map of Jaynes

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Santa Cruz River valley serves as the primary corridor for development northwest of Tucson in the late 1960s. This landscape is defined by the convergence of the Southern Pacific railroad and major watercourses, including Rillito Creek and Cañada del Oro. While urban expansion is visible through the Miracle Mile Exchange and the Freeway Airport, the outskirts remain dominated by scattered residential ranching properties like Wild Horse Ranch and Iron Bell Ranch. To the west, the foothills of the Tucson Mts reveal an earlier era of resource extraction, with the Yuma Mine and Gila Monster Mine located near Picture Rocks. Small settlements such as Cortaro, Jaynes, and Stockham dot the rail line, while the Univ of Ariz Experimental Farm represents the region's ongoing agricultural research footprint.
