1973 Map of Mobile

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Mobile serves as the primary outpost in this arid landscape, situated along the Maricopa Southern Pacific Road which bisects the quadrangle. The map captures a transitional geography where Rainbow Valley and Mobile Valley meet, shaped by intermittent drainage systems like Waterman Wash and its West Prong. The presence of the Gila and Salt River Meridian provides a critical surveying benchmark for Maricopa County, while the path of the Butterfield Stage Route traces the historical transportation corridor north of the modern rail line. Scattered water sources, including Negro Flat Tank and Middle Tank, indicate the essential infrastructure for ranching or travel in the shadow of Espanto Mtn. A small Cem near the settlement of Mobile offers a specific point of interest for genealogists tracking early desert inhabitants.
