1990 Map of Pozo Nuevo Well

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument dominates this desert landscape, where the convergence of several protected federal lands illustrates the complex land management of the Sonoran Desert in the late twentieth century. The map details a transition from the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge and Wilderness in the west to the restricted zones of the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range. Isolated water sources like Pozo Nuevo Well and the seasonal San Cristobal Wash define the survival patterns of this arid region. The presence of Jose Juan Tank and the defunct Cipriano Well (Dry) suggest the cattle ranching history that preceded the establishment of these wilderness preserves. Rising from the Growler Valley, the Bates Mountains and Agua Dulce Mountains create a topographical barrier between military training grounds and national monument lands.
