1996 Map of Santa Rosa Mountains NE

About this map

Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation lands dominate this desert landscape, where the southern reaches of the Slate Mountains and the rising elevations of the Santa Rosa Mountains meet the wide drainage of the Aguirre Valley. The map documents a territory defined by arroyo systems like Tat Momoli Wash and Aguirre Wash, punctuated by signs of mineral exploration including a Mine Shaft and various Prospects. To the east, the boundary of the Ironwood Forest National Monument borders the reservation, illustrating the complex land management of Pima County's Sonoran Desert. Remote 4WD tracks provide the primary access through this arid terrain, linking the valley floors to high points such as Stone Peak. The presence of a long Ditch in the northeast suggests historical attempts at water diversion in this water-scarce environment, where natural drainages are ephemeral.
