1979 Map of Sells East

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Sells serves as a primary hub within the Papago Indian Reservation during the late 1970s, anchoring a landscape where desert washes and mountain ranges dictate the layout of community and industry. Education and faith are centered at landmarks like Baboquivari High School and Our Lady of Lourdes Mission, while smaller settlements such as Chiawuli Tak, Ali Chukson, and Ali Molina are connected by roads that skirt the Baboquivari Valley. To the north, the South Comobabi Mountains rise sharply, dotted with evidence of earlier mineral exploration at the Green Mine and Jaeger Mine. The reliance on local water sources is evident through the naming of various wells, including Rattlesnake Well and Presbyterian Well, which supported the livestock and small-scale agriculture necessary in the arid Sells Valley Wash corridor.
