1996 Map of Picacho Pass

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Picacho Pass serves as the focal point of this arid Pinal County landscape, where the Picacho Mountains rise abruptly from the desert floor. The 1996 data reveals a region defined by water management and resource extraction, notably the prominent Tucson Aqueduct and its associated flume cutting through the terrain. Evidence of historical and active desert utility is scattered throughout the quadrangle, from the Gold Bell Mine and various prospect sites to a network of desert wells including Clemens Well and the Barnett Well (Dry). The presence of a Landing Strip and a major Pipeline underscores the area's role as a transit corridor. Several ephemeral drainage systems like McClellan Wash and Durham Wash illustrate the natural hydrologic patterns that shaped the land long before modern infrastructure arrived.
