1998 Map of San Simon

About this map

The San Simon settlement serves as the primary hub of this high-desert landscape in Cochise County, anchoring a region defined by agricultural infrastructure and the surrounding topography. The local economy and community life are evidenced by the presence of a Cotton Gin, Silos, and a central Athletic Field and Rodeo Ground. To the east, the terrain rises sharply into the Peloncillo Mountains and the protected Peloncillo Mountains Wilderness, where landmarks like Mc Kenzie Peak and Gold Hill overlook the basin. Resource extraction and water management are prominent throughout the survey, noted by scattered Mine Shafts, an Adit, and several water sources including Copper Well and Hat Top Tank. The transportation network is marked by a Landing Strip and a long-distance Pipeline, while the USDA Check Station indicates the area's role in interstate transit and agricultural monitoring.
