1922 Map of Swisshelm

USGS Topo · Published 1927

About this map

The El Paso Southwestern railroad corridor anchor this 1920s tactical survey of the Sulphur Spring Valley. This landscape transition is marked by a grid of agricultural settlements and cattle operations, including the Double Rod Ranch and Four Bar Ranch, which contrast with the sharp verticality of the Swisshelm Mountains. Local commerce and community life center on small hubs like Elfrida and McNeal, while the presence of the Old Stamp Mill near the Caliente Webb P O points to the area's mineral interests. The map illustrates a developed rural infrastructure of schools and post offices, such as the Leslie School, positioned between the valley floor's Whitewater Draw and the high peaks of Swisshelm Mtn. This document captures the region after early twentieth-century settlement had established a firm footprint in Cochise County.
