1942 Map of San Vicente

About this map

The Papago Indian Reservation occupies the central expanse of this 1938 survey, illustrating a landscape defined by isolated ranching outposts and desert mining interests. Local habitation is clustered around small settlements such as San Vicente, Schuchk, and Haivana Nakya, where life was inextricably tied to scattered water sources noted as Well and Tank sites. The southern terrain is dominated by the Coyote Mountains, where the Roadside Mine sits just off the Ajo-Tucson Highway, marking the era's mineral extraction efforts. To the north and west, the peaks of the North Comobabi Mountains and Vaca Hills frame a valley floor dotted with cattle industry landmarks like San Ignacio Ranch, Cornell Ranch, and Coyote Field. This map provides a clear record of the early-century transportation network, following the primary highway and a series of secondary routes connecting remote desert dwellings such as Wattle Hut and Pan Tak.
