1996 Map of Sierra Bonita Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Sierra Bonita Ranch serves as the focal point of this arid Graham County landscape, reflecting the long-standing ranching traditions of the region. The topography is defined by the Black Hills to the west and the expansive drainage systems of Aravaipa Creek and High Creek. A significant hydrological feature is the Hooker Cienega, a desert marshland that historically supported livestock and wildlife in an otherwise dry environment. The prevalence of features such as High Lonesome Windmill, several Water Tanks, and the Sunset Loop road network suggests a landscape carefully managed for cattle operations. Further south, the terrain descends toward Horton Creek and Ash Creek, while the surveyor's mark at Sunset East Base provides a glimpse into the precise mapping efforts required to document these remote range lands in the late twentieth century.
