2021 Map of Antelope Hills

About this map

The Yuma County and Pima County border bisects this arid landscape, a region defined by expansive valleys and weathered mountain ranges. The northern portion of the Bryan Mountains rises in the northwest, while the Antelope Hills dominate the eastern reaches, overlooking the broad San Cristobal Valley. The desert floor is marked by the San Cristobal Wash and the occasional presence of Dos Playas, indicating areas where seasonal water may collect in an otherwise dry basin. These topographic features illustrate the classic basin-and-range geography of southwestern Arizona, where the Mohawk Valley and Growler Valley meet the rising slopes of isolated rocky outcroppings. Mapping of this area highlights the sparse human footprint in this corner of the Sonoran Desert, focused primarily on land division and natural terrain.
