1973 Map of Woolsey Peak

About this map

The Gila Bend Mountains dominate this 1970s landscape, a terrain defined by arid summits and the critical infrastructure of the Southwest. Resource extraction is evident across the northern slopes, where historical operations such as the Idazona Mines and Morgan Mine are documented alongside several unnamed Prospect sites. Water, the most vital and scarce commodity in the Maricopa County desert, is managed through a network of isolated improvements including Jagow Tank, Webb Well, and several numbered wells like Gable Well No 1. The presence of the Southern Pacific Pipeline in the northwest corner highlights the area's role as a transit corridor for energy and utilities. High points like Woolsey Peak and Signal Mountain provide natural surveying landmarks, while Woolsey Wash serves as the primary drainage route through this remote desert environment.
