About this map

The Santa Cruz River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement and transit in this southern Arizona landscape, where the Santa Cruz County terrain rises sharply from the riverbanks toward the high summits of the Tumacacori Mountains. Modern residential development in Rio Rico and Rio Rico Northwest is mapped alongside deep-rooted cultural sites, most notably the Tumacacori National Historical Park. This protected area preserves the mission era's history near the village of Tumacacori.

To the west, the Coronado National Forest covers the high country, including prominent landmarks like Sardina Peak and Tumacacori Peak. The map documents a complex network of canyons such as Aliso Canyon and Peck Canyon that drain into the valley. Small settlements like Tubac, Carmen, and Otero are situated along the valley floor, showing the legacy of ranching and early Spanish influence through labels like Kenyon Ranch Rd and Rock Corral Spring.
