1987 Map of Portal Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Coronado National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in the mid-1980s, centered on the towering Chiricahua Mountains. The map reveals a complex network of canyons and peaks, including the prominent Portal Peak and Finnicum Peak, which define the local horizon. Human activity in this arid environment is clearly marked by water management features such as Licklog Tank, Warren Well, and Kambitch Reservoir, which supported ranching or conservation efforts within the forest boundaries. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages like Cave Creek and South Fork Cave Creek, which flow through steep-walled corridors like Horseshoe Canyon and Baker Canyon. This survey provides a precise record of the trails and unimproved roads that cross the high passes, such as Jack Wood Pass and Horseshoe Pass, showing the established access points into the wilderness areas during this era of federal land management.
