1996 Map of Quitobaquito Springs

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Quitobaquito Springs and the adjacent Quitobaquito Pond serve as a critical focal point in this desert landscape straddling the international boundary. The terrain is defined by the Quitobaquito Hills and the Cipriano Hills, where scattered water sources like Williams Spring and Burro Spring provided essential stopovers for travelers. The map documents the intersection of significant land management areas, including the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument and the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge. South of the border in Sonora, the settlement of El Papalote sits near the Sonoita watercourse, while landmarks such as Corner Well and Hocker Well indicate historical water extraction in this arid environment. The transition from the Sierra Los Tanques to the La Abra Plain illustrates the varied topography of the borderlands.
