1987 Map of Paramore Crater

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Paramore Crater sits as a prominent volcanic feature in the high desert of Cochise County, anchoring a landscape shaped by both geology and historical transport. This mid-1980s record captures a wide expanse of the San Bernardino Valley, where the terrain is marked by intermittent water features like Malpais Tank and the seasonal basins of Dry Lake. A clear linear trace of the Old Railroad Grade runs through the western portion of the map, passing near the settlement area of Chiricahua. The map illustrates a ranching and transit landscape where cattle corrals and water draws like Black Draw are the primary landmarks. The presence of the abandoned rail alignment alongside volcanic landmarks like Red Hill provides a detailed look at the infrastructure of the Arizona borderlands before modern developments altered the local character.
