1959 Map of Tortolita Mts

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Cross Triangle Ranch and a network of family-held properties define this arid landscape at the border of Pinal and Pima Counties. The terrain is marked by the prominence of the Tortolita Mountains and Owl Head Buttes, which channeled early settlement into the surrounding valleys. Ranching life is evident through numerous named holdings such as Forman Ranch, Goodman Ranch, and Barriles Ranch, all reliant on the system of wells and windmills like Sampson Well and Riddle Windmill that punctuated the desert floor.
