dating back to 1864,
showing a large "cienaga" (A),
a long "sierrita" (B) (Cerro Portezuelo),
and the Ojos Negros "cienagas" (C) to the
southwestern edge of the valley.

on the east end of Cerro Portezuelo.
An "arroyo cienegoso" (G),
a mixture of marshes and Populus fremontii,
is shown to the north of the primary cienaga (A)

(Minnich and Franco, 1998).
