1990 Map of Vaya Chin

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Vaya Chin sits at the heart of this desert landscape within the Papago Indian Reservation, where the seasonal drainage of San Simon Wash defines the movement of water across the basin. The map reveals the practical infrastructure of life in the arid Sonoran region, marked by numerous Check Dams, a Water Tank, and a Well near the settlement. The Gila and Salt River Meridian bisects the quadrangle, serving as a critical surveying reference point for the surrounding Valley. To the east and northeast, the terrain rises sharply into the Sierra Blanca and the Castle Mountains, while isolated peaks like Stanley stand apart from the primary ranges. Local land use is further evidenced by a Cem and several Corral sites, illustrating a landscape managed for both community and cattle.
