2018 Map of Beckers Butte

About this map

Beckers Butte stands as a prominent landmark overlooking the dramatic descent into the Salt River Canyon, a landscape defined by deep drainages and high plateaus. The hydrology of this high-desert environment in Gila County is dominated by a complex system of livestock tanks and seasonal springs, including Frog Pond, Coyote Spring, and the uniquely named Golden Rule Tank. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous canyons such as Flying V Canyon, Walnut Canyon, and Tanks Canyon, which channel runoff toward the winding Salt River.
