1930 Map of Stoval

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Stoval and its surrounding desert landscape are captured here during a transitional era for Yuma County infrastructure. The Gila River meanders across the central portion of the sheet, providing a life-giving axis for early development in the San Cristobal Valley. This arid terrain is defined by the proximity of the Southern Pacific railroad, which supported a string of isolated desert outposts and watering points such as Kofa Sta, Clampton Siding, and Horn. The map also preserves the paths of early thoroughfares like the Old Palomas Yuma Road and the Yuma Phoenix Road, illustrating how regional transit moved before the era of modern highways. Between the Palomas Mountains to the north and the Aztec Hills to the south, small settlements like Texas Hill and Le Sage mark the limited but vital human presence in this corner of the Sonoran Desert.
