1965 Map of Sierra Arida

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Camino Del Diablo (Jeep Trail) cuts through this desert landscape along the Arizona-Sonora border, following a path of immense significance for travelers between Yuma and the Sonoran interior. This mid-1960s survey documents a region defined by its extreme aridity and stark geological features, including the Pinacate Lava Flow and the extensive Pinta Sands. Much of the territory is managed as the Cabeza Prieta Game Range and falls within the Luke Air Force Range, emphasizing the area's dual role as a wildlife refuge and military training ground.
