USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The Luis Maria Baca (Float No 3) land grant dominates the northern half of this landscape, reflecting a complex history of private Mexican land claims that persisted through the American territorial period. Along the banks of the Santa Cruz River, the presence of the Guevavi Mission (Ruins) and the Calabasas (Site) marks centuries of settlement at the confluence with Sonoita Creek. These sites, situated near the Southern Pacific railroad corridor, illustrate the long-standing strategic importance of this valley for transit and trade.
