1996 Map of Vanar NW

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

The San Simon River winds through this desert terrain in Cochise County, defining the drainage patterns of a landscape marked by utility and remote infrastructure. Water management is the primary human fingerprint on the land, with numerous scattered wells and a network of pipelines crossing the territory. The presence of several landing strips suggests a reliance on aerial access in this sparsely populated region, where the label Portal identifies a central landmark. To the south, the topography grows more complex as East Whitetail Creek descends from the surrounding highlands, carving channels toward the basin floor. This map captures the intersection of natural watercourses and the engineered systems required to sustain ranching or industrial activity in the arid Arizona borderlands.
