1934 Map of Newman Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1934

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor and the Santa Cruz River define the layout of this Central Arizona territory during the mid-1930s. The landscape is a study in transition between the agricultural development near Coolidge and the desert ranching lands further south. Significant industrial activity is marked by the Sasco Mine and the nearby settlement of Sasco in the southwest corner. The map documents numerous small rail stops and homesteads along the tracks, including Wymola, Montrose, and Redrock, which served as vital connections for local ranchers. To the east, the rugged topography of Newman Peak and the Owl Head Buttes rises above the basin, where drainage systems like Brady Wash and Suffering Wash cut through the arid terrain. Large holdings like 96 Ranch and Coyote Ranch illustrate the era's reliance on scattered water sources such as Paisano Tanks.
