About this map

The Chiricahua Mountains define this high-desert landscape in southeastern Arizona, where old mining sites and small mountain settlements are scattered among the canyons. The historic Galeyville (Site) and nearby Paradise reflect the area's prospecting past, supported by the presence of the Cochise Mine and several other mine shafts near Davis Mountain. The map details a transition from resource extraction to conservation and research, shown by the establishment of the Coronado National Forest and the Chiricahua Wilderness.
