1996 Map of San Simon Cienega

About this map

San Simon River defines the drainage through this high desert region, where the state boundary between Arizona and New Mexico meets the county line of Cochise and Hidalgo. The map centers on the San Simon Cienega, a vital wetland area in an otherwise arid landscape. Human activity is focused around the Cienega Ranch, which includes a small Cem and a nearby Landing Strip, indicating the remote and self-sustaining nature of ranching operations in the late 20th century. Numerous wells and a Water Tank are scattered across the terrain, marking the critical infrastructure required for livestock and habitation. A single Gravel Pit near the river suggests localized resource extraction in this sparsely populated borderland.
