1958 Map of St. David

About this map

Contention (Ruins) and the Quiburi Mission (Ruins) stand as quiet markers of earlier occupation along the San Pedro River in this mid-century portrait of Cochise County. The valley floor is defined by a network of water management, from the St David Ditch to scattered Artesian Wells, supporting the agricultural life centered around St David and smaller stops like Curtiss and Land. To the west, the Lonesome Valley stretches toward the mountains, while the eastern horizon is dominated by the Dragoon Mountains within the Coronado National Forest.
