1996 Map of Willcox South

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Willcox sits at the northern edge of a desert landscape dominated by the expansive Willcox Dry Lake Playa. This 1996 survey illustrates the stark transition from the town's developed outskirts, featuring a Golf Course and Sewage Disposal Ponds, to the barren stretches of the Alkali Flats. The map reveals a specialized land use pattern where the vast dry lake bed serves as the Willcox Bombing Range, a massive military installation that occupies the southern half of the quadrangle. Local industrial activity is evident through a Quarry and Gravel Pit near the town, while a major Pipeline cuts across the northern desert. These features together show a region defined by its extreme geography and its utility for both military training and resource extraction during the late twentieth century.
