About this map

The Gila River corridor defines this agricultural and desert landscape, where a series of small settlements and irrigation works support life in the Gila Valley. The town of Pima sits as a central hub, flanked by the communities of Dublin, Glenbar, and Bryce. An intricate network of water management is visible, including the Graham Canal and numerous drainage features like Markham Wash and Cottonwood Wash that feed toward the river valley.

Genealogists will find significant local-history data in the multiple burial grounds serving these disparate rural communities, including Pima Cem, Bryce Cem, Glenbar Cem, and Hubbard Cem. The transition from the rugged northern terrain of Lopas Canyon and Rocky Flat to the structured grid of the valley floor illustrates the century-old adaptation to the local hydrology, centered around the Rogers Reservoir and the fertile lands near Mud Hollow.
