1957 Map of Redington

About this map

The San Pedro River serves as the central artery for this mid-century Arizona landscape, where agricultural outposts and cattle operations line the valley floor. Small settlements and family holdings like Redington and the Cascabel Ranch define the human footprint along the river's path, supported by the local Cascabel School. This 1950s survey reflects a period of established ranching life before modern expansion, where movement was dictated by the terrain of the Galiuro Mountains and numerous desert washes such as Sheep Camp Wash. To the east, the topography climbs toward Sierra Blanca and Wildcat Peak, punctuated by isolated landmarks like Jackson Cabin and the Jackson Mine. The map reveals a network of canyons including Redfield Canyon and Hot Springs Canyon, while a Jeep Trail provides one of the few managed routes through the higher elevations of the Coronado National Forest.
