1996 Map of Tecolote Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

The Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation dominates this borderlands landscape, where the Tecolote Valley meets the rugged Alvarez Mountains along the international boundary between the United States of America and Mexico. The map documents a sparse desert environment defined by ephemeral watercourses like Chukut Kuk Wash and remote outposts such as Tecolote Ranch. Genealogists and local historians can locate several former habitation points, including San Rafael (Site) and Vakamok (Site), alongside a small Cemetery near the ranch. The southern edge of the sheet follows the Arizona-Sonora border, marked by a series of survey monuments and 4WD tracks that emphasize the isolation of this high-desert terrain during the late twentieth century. Landforms like Wolfley Hill and El Chango provide distinct topographical markers in an area where resources are centered on features like the San Rafael Well.
