About this map

Aguila Valley dominates the northern expanse of this Arizona terrain, where a landscape of mining and water management reflects the demands of the arid environment. The southern portion is defined by the Vulture Mountains, a rugged area peppered with industrial sites including the Sunrise Mine, the Lucky Cuss Mine, and various unnamed Mine Shafts and Quartz Prospects. This concentration of extraction points suggests a period of significant mineral exploration within the hills around Outlaw Hill.

Human activity is further evidenced by a specialized water infrastructure, with numerous livestock or industrial tanks such as Six-shooter Tank, Railroad Tank, and Twin Joe Tank scattered across the basin. Near the settlement of Echeverria, a Landing Strip and Trans Line provide clues to the region's mid-to-late 20th-century transportation and utility development, supporting the remote operations in the valley.
