1996 Map of Sand Wells

About this map

The Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation landscape is defined by its arid terrain and the critical infrastructure developed to manage water in the Sonoran desert. Centered around Black Mountain, the map reveals a network of water management features, including Standing Bar Tank, Pad Wo'o Tank, and the Black Mtn Well. These sites, along with the Corral Water Tank, reflect the essential adaptations required for life and livestock in Pima County. The eastern portion of the sheet is dominated by the steep slopes of the North Comobabi Mountains, where several unnamed Prospects suggest historical interest in mineral exploration.
