1996 Map of Mica Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Mica Mountain dominates the high-altitude landscape of this mid-1990s survey, marking a rugged transition between the Saguaro National Park and the surrounding Coronado National Forest. This high desert environment is defined by its seasonal hydrology, where sites like Douglas Camp Spring and Grass Shack Spring are noted as dry, while perennially important spots such as Spud Rock Spring and Devils Bathtub Spring dot the mountain slopes. The map reveals the infrastructure of early conservation and resource management, including the Madrona Ranger Sta, a lookout tower at the summit, and the remote Manning Camp. In the lower Rincon Valley, the layout of the Rincon Ranch and evidence of local industry at a marked Mine show the human footprint along the banks of Rincon Creek.
