1979 Map of Penitas Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Sierrita Mountains and the Peñitas Hills define the arid topography of this Pima County landscape, where water management is the primary marker of human activity. The map reveals a network of desert infrastructure focused on livestock and small-scale operations, notably at the Peyron Ranch and San Juan Ranch. Dozens of named water catchments and wells, such as the Cinco de Mayo Well, Papago Well, and La Cholla Tank, are linked by a web of unimproved paths and the prominent Batamote Road.
