1989 Map of Queens Well

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The Papago Indian Reservation dominates this desert landscape, where the seasonal waters of Aguirre Wash cut through the broad Aguirre Valley. In this arid terrain, human adaptation is visible through the extensive network of Check Dams and isolated water sources like the eponymous Queens Well. The map captures a moment of late-century land management, reflecting the infrastructure required for subsistence and ranching in a remote corner of Pima County. Topographic relief is provided by the Vaca Hills to the west and the prominent Ka Kohl Hill rising in the northeast. This 1989 edition, based on earlier surveys and updated with 1980s aerial photography, provides a detailed record of the desert's drainage patterns and the specific, named landmarks that defined this tribal land before the reservation's formal renaming.
