1939 Map of Twin Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

The high-desert terrain of the Sierrita Mountains dominates this 1930s survey, revealing a landscape defined by cattle ranching and mining. Prominent peaks such as Samaniego Pk and Keystone Pk loom over a network of canyons, including Fresnal Canyon and White House Canyon. Human settlement is centered around remote outposts like McGee Ranch, which is served by the nearby McGee School, and several other family operations such as Pino Blanco Ranch and Harris Ranch. The map captures the industrial character of the era through the San Xavier mine area and the namesake Twin Buttes settlement.
