About this map

The San Pedro River valley serves as the central axis for this 1981 survey of the Arizona interior, where the high desert meets the structured boundaries of Pima, Graham, and Cochise Counties. This map documents a transitional landscape of ranching and remote settlement, centered on the community of Redington and the nearby Bingham Ranch. The presence of the Galiuro School and a local Cem (cemetery) suggests a durable, though sparse, residential footprint along the river's eastern banks, supported by the primary transit route of Redington Road.

Beyond the valley floor, the terrain is defined by complex drainage systems including Redfield Canyon, Aguja Canyon, and Markham Canyon. The survey captures the infrastructure of the early 1980s, from the Landing Strip near the river to the Pipeline cutting across the southwestern quadrant. This map is particularly valuable for tracing historical ranch boundaries and the network of 4WD trails that connect these isolated desert outposts.
