1921 Map of Old Glory

USGS Topo · Published 1921

About this map

The San Luis Mts. and Sierra de Alamodel dominate this 1921 reconnaissance of the borderlands south of Tucson. This military survey documents a sparse network of working cattle ranches and mining claims during a period of increased border surveillance. Significant markers of the era include the Custom Guard Station and the Pajarito Ranger Station, while the Old Mission near Busani Ranch hints at much earlier Spanish-era settlement. Resource extraction is evident through the Old Glory Mine and Mejia Mine, along with the Inclan Ranch Old Mill. The landscape is defined by its water sources, from the Agua Caliente springs to various improvements like the El Silencio R. Well & Mud Tank, which were essential for survival in this arid territory.
