2011 Map of Baboquivari Peak

About this map

Baboquivari Peak dominates the southern skyline of the Baboquivari Mountains in this Pima County landscape. The area is defined by a series of deep drainages including Mulberry Canyon, Nogales Canyon, and Brown Canyon, where the Brown Canyon Natural Bridge spans the rocky terrain. Ranching footprints are evident through established outposts like Redondo Ranch and Elkhorn Ranch, while water sources such as Itois Eyes, Broken Trough Spring, and Tinoja Spring signify the essential, localized water points required for survival in this arid environment. The map details a complex network of ephemeral washes like Fresnal Wash and Sabino Wash that carve through the desert floor, illustrating the natural drainage patterns that dictate the placement of roads such as Elk Horn Ranch Rd and Las Delicias Ranch Rd.
