1996 Map of Million Dollar Tank

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

The San Bernardino Valley landscape dominates this mid-1990s survey of Cochise County, defined by a complex network of ephemeral drainage systems. The northern reaches are marked by Mormon Tanks and the eponymous Million Dollar Tank, critical water infrastructure in this arid environment. The terrain is shaped by the parallel courses of Black Draw and Cottonwood Draw, which cut through the high desert floor. Notable human modifications to this remote area include a remote Landing Strip and several Corral sites, indicating the continued importance of ranching operations. Significant landmarks like Wildcat Hill rise above the drainage basins of Sycamore Creek and Hay Hollow Wash, providing a clear view of the geographic transition as the land slopes toward the Mexican border.
