1996 Map of Vamori

About this map

The Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation dominates this desert landscape, where the Alvarez Mountains rise sharply out of the flat basin. The small settlement of Vamori sits at the edge of the Vamori Valley, characterized by seasonal drainage patterns like Vamori Wash and localized water sources such as Wamul Tank. Toward the south, the international boundary with Sonora, Mexico, cuts across the terrain, passing just south of Wolfley Hill and Tecolote Ranch. The presence of several unmarked Cem labels near Itak and Vamori provides significant points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing families within the O'odham lands. The topography reveals the stark isolation of the high desert, punctuated by landmarks like Rocky Point, which serve as visual anchors in this expansive Pima County region.
