1942 Map of Silver Reef Mountains

About this map

Mining operations and Tohono O'odham settlements define this high-desert landscape within the Papago Indian Reservation during the early 1940s. The region is marked by significant mineral extraction, with the Silver Reef Mine and Jackrabbit Mine anchoring industrial activity in the rugged corridor. The map details a complex network of ephemeral drainage systems, most notably the Santa Rosa Wash and Silver Reef Wash, which navigate the terrain between the Silver Reef Mountains and the Sawtooth Mts. Small communities such as Tat Momoli, Vaiva Vo, and Kohatk are documented alongside specialized sites like the Desert Queen Mine and Slate Mtn Mine. These labels reflect an era of transition where traditional land use and industrial prospecting shared the arid Pinal County interior, evidenced by the inclusion of local landmarks like Prieta Peak and White Horse Pass.
