The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad serves as the primary artery through the northwestern reaches of this desert landscape, linking the settlements of Vicksburg, Salome, and Wenden within the McMullen Valley. Military interest in the region during the early 1940s is evident from the notation of a Possible Air Field and Possible Landing Field near the rail line. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex, dominated by the Harquahala Mountains and the Eagle Tail Mountains, where industry is represented by the Socorro Mine and Harquahala Mine.
