1981 Map of Samaniego Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Samaniego Peak rises as a central landmark within the Sierrita Mountains, anchor points for a landscape defined by ranching infrastructure and mineral extraction. This 1981 edition documents the arid terrain as it appeared during a period of industrial shift, particularly visible at the Sierrita Mine (West Pit) and its associated Mine Dump. The map reveals a network of water sources essential for desert survival and operations, including Bills Spring, Graus Spring, and several family-named improvements such as Mickey Rye Well and the Zapeda Well. Small clusters of habitation and named locales like Mc Gees Settlement and Demetrie provide evidence of local history and land use. The presence of numerous 4WD tracks and washes like Fresnal Wash and Soto Wash highlights the remote nature of the terrain, while the Fortuna Mine and various Prospect markings indicate a long-standing history of prospecting in the canyons.
