1981 Map of Tubac

About this map

Tubac Presidio State Historical Park and the historic mission grounds at Tumacacori National Monument anchor this corridor along the Santa Cruz River. The landscape reveals a deep history of settlement and land tenure, from the remnants at Camp Loco (Ruins) to the sprawling boundaries of the Luis Maria Baca Float No 3. These Mexican land grant legacies sit adjacent to the Coronado National Forest, where the terrain rises toward Tumacacori Peak and Sardina Peak. Transportation and water dictate the layout of the valley, with the Southern Pacific railroad and Interstate interchanges connecting Tubac, Carmen, and Tumacacori. Evidence of local ranching and rural life is scattered throughout, including Kenyon Ranch, San Cayetano Ranch, and the Calabasas Sch near the southern map boundary.
