1979 Map of Vamori

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Papago Indian Reservation dominates this late-1970s topographic study, illustrating a landscape of high desert basins and isolated summits along the international border. The settlement of Vamori sits at the head of the Vamori Valley, where the ephemeral Vamori Wash drains through the arid plains. Life in this environment is clearly centered around water management, evidenced by the scattered corrals and infrastructure like Wamul Tank and Water Tank. To the west, the Alvarez Mountains rise sharply, featuring landmarks such as Rocky Point and Ram Boo Ranch. The southern edge of the map is defined by the United States Mexico border, underscoring the remote character of this desert region. Small clusters of habitation like Itak and several noted cemeteries provide critical touchpoints for genealogists and local historians researching the enduring communities of this borderland territory.
