1925 Map of Samaniego Peak

About this map

Samaniego Peak rises as the central landmark of this 1924 survey, which documents a landscape of isolated cattle ranches and emerging mineral extraction. The map reveals a network of water-dependent homesteads such as Tambiando Ranch, Mannings South Ranch, and Freezes Ranch scattered across the arid terrain. These family-named properties reflect the ranching economy of early twentieth-century Pima County, while industrial activity is anchored at the Cowboy Mine and Morgan Mines. Transportation is defined by the Southern Pacific Railroad and the Twin Buttes Road, which provided essential links for moving ore and livestock. The presence of several water troughs underscores the critical importance of water management in this environment, while the eastern edge follows the course of the Santa Cruz River.
