2011 Map of Pima

About this map

The Gila River corridor near the town of Pima reveals a landscape defined by its irrigation and agricultural history in the early 21st century. This survey documents the network of washes and canyons feeding into the Gila Valley, including Markham Wash, Peck Wash, and Billingsley Creek. The map provides significant genealogical value through its detailed labeling of numerous family and community burial sites, such as the Glenbar Cemetery, Bryce Cemetery, and Rogers Cemetery. Small settlements and named locales like Dublin, Bryce, and Kimball are anchored by the Pima Post Office, while the infrastructure of water management is visible in features like the Chesley-Wamslee Dam and Rogers Reservoir Dam. The transition from the rugged Rocky Flat to the developed agricultural plots south of the river illustrates the area's continued reliance on the local watershed.
