About this map

Baboquivari Peak dominates the skyline of the Baboquivari Mountains, a range defined by its deep drainages and distinctive high-elevation features. This area in southern Arizona is characterized by a network of seasonal watercourses like Mulberry Wash and Chiltepines Wash, which have carved canyons such as Fresnal Canyon and Contreras Canyon over millennia. The map details a landscape where traditional water sources are critical, marked by Broken Trough Spring, Tinaja Spring, and Max Seep.

Notable geological landmarks include the Brown Canyon Natural Bridge and the uniquely named Itois Eyes near Thomas Canyon. For those tracing historical movement through this terrain, the Jaguar Canyon Trail and Brown Canyon Arch Trail provide specific routes through the Wasatch Range. The map also identifies local stock-watering points like Virtud Tank and Diablo Tank, reflecting the regional land use patterns of the early 21st century.
