The Huachuca Mountain area is owned principally by the USDA Forest Service (Coronado National Forest) (41%), the U.S. Army (Fort Huachuca) (20%), and private land (32%).

The Huachuca Mountains were named by the Spanish for a Pima village that once existed to the north of the range near the present location of Elgin, Arizona.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Saguaro Juniper Corporation )〕 The Coronado National Memorial is in the southeastern margin of the range near the international border.
