1981 Map of Mt. Wrightson

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The high ridges of the Santa Rita Mountains dominate this 1981 survey of the Arizona backcountry, centered on the dramatic elevation of Mt Wrightson and Josephine Peak. Within the Coronado National Forest, the landscape reveals a dense history of resource extraction, with numerous workings such as the Lucky Ledge Mine, Silver King Mine, and the East Compadre Shaft peppering the canyons. The topography is defined by steep drainages like Florida Canyon and Josephine Canyon, which served as vital corridors for both early mining and later recreation.
