2018 Map of Saint David

About this map

The San Pedro River corridor serves as the primary artery for settlement and agricultural development in this corner of Cochise County. The community of St. David is the central hub, supported by a system of irrigation infrastructure including the Saint David Ditch and the Pomerene Canal. These waterworks reflect a long-standing history of desert farming along the river bottomlands. Further south, the settlement of Curtiss sits near the river banks, while the landscape to the north and east transitions into the drainage systems of Dragoon Wash and Sheep Wash. In the western reaches, the topography rises toward Stronghold Canyon West, showing the transition from riparian valley to the desert foothills. The map documents a blend of established riverfront communities and the newer residential developments evidenced by the network of named local roads reaching into Lonesome Valley and the area near Fenner.
