1974 Map of Pat Hills North

About this map

The high desert landscape of Cochise County is defined by the Pat Hills and their prominent high point, Landmark. This mid-1970s survey reveals an arid environment where water management was central to survival and ranching, evidenced by scattered infrastructure like Shaw Well 3, Deep Well, and several Water Tanks. The drainage patterns of Cienega Draw, Ideal Draw, and Mogul Draw run across the northern sections, while Pinery Creek cuts through the southeastern corner. Evidence of human activity and ranching commerce is found at the Creasey Ranch and various livestock enclosures simply marked as Corral and Corrals. Transportation in this era relied on a network of rough routes including a primary Jeep Trail, while the presence of several Gravel Pits and various Prospects indicates localized mineral interest and road-building activity during this period of Arizona's development.
