About this map

The San Bernardino Grant Boundary Line defines the southern reach of this 1917 survey, where the high desert terrain of Cochise County meets the international border. This map records a landscape of isolated cattle operations and early transportation corridors during the height of the ranching era. The Borderland Highway and rail points like Cazador Siding and Lee Siding provided vital links for the scattered homesteads. Families of the era are memorialized through namesake features such as the Hazelwood Ranch, Raner Goss Ranch, and Ed Howard Ranch. Community life centers on the Cottonwood Creek School and a lonely Cemetery near Cottonwood Wash. The survey also marks essential water sources in this arid environment, including Guadalupe Spring and the evocatively named Spring of Contention.
