About this map

The Gila River defines the northern reaches of this arid landscape, where early 20th-century utility and transit infrastructure follows the path of the Southern Pacific railroad. Small railway stops and service points like Mohawk, Pembroke, and Colfred mark the corridor, which supported local industrial operations including the Gas and Water Company and Gila Valley Electric. The map reveals a transition from the river valley into the sharp relief of the Mohawk Mts and Copper Mountains, where the Arizona Consolidated Mining Co suggests the era's mineral exploration. Desert tracks lead away from the rail line, including the route To Cabeza Prieta Tanks and the path To Papago Well, illustrating the vital importance of water sources in this remote southwestern terrain.
