About this map

The San Simon River corridor in the mid-1970s reveals a landscape defined by its critical water sources along the Graham and Cochise County line. This arid region relied heavily on artesian and flowing wells for livestock and small-scale operations, as seen at the Martin Well and Howard Well. The presence of labels like Chaney Place and Rabbit Farm points to individual homesteading and specialized agricultural efforts in an area otherwise dominated by alluvial features like The Fan. Geologic interest is marked by several mines and prospects located west of the river. The map also records numerous corrals and a network of jeep trails that connect these remote water points, illustrating the infrastructure required for ranching in the high desert of southeastern Arizona.
