Redington Arizona Galiuro Wilderness USGS Topo Map 1961

A 1957 edition USGS 15-minute quad, printed in 1961, this copy is in excellent condition on thick stock. The sheet takes in a rugged stretch of southeastern Arizona spanning parts of Cochise, Graham, and Pima counties, covering portions of Coronado National Forest that include the Rincon Mountain Wilderness, Redfield Canyon Wilderness, and Galiuro Wilderness. With no towns or communities in the quad area, this map will serve backcountry users — hikers, hunters, and canyon explorers — who need reliable period coverage of some of the most remote wilderness terrain in the Sonoran Desert borderlands.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the 15-minute series for the continental United States are no longer produced or printed by the USGS and original prints are becoming increasingly difficult to find. They are a valuable historical record for an area, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent maps.
