About this map

Apache National Forest lands dominate this territory in Greenlee County, where a vast network of water management features highlights the necessity of range improvements in this arid landscape. The map details an extensive system of catchment basins including Bee Springs Tank, Baseline Tank Number 2, and Pine Spring Tank, which are critical for supporting livestock and wildlife away from natural seeps like Simmons Spring.

Logistics and transport are defined by the Double Circle Ranch Airport and a series of high-altitude features such as Sunflower Mesa and N O Bar Mesa. Recreational and access routes are also established here, with the Eagle National Recreation Trl and Cottonwood Trl providing passage through the dramatic elevation changes of Mud Springs Canyon and Bee Canyon. The terrain is strictly divided by the Graham Co Greenlee Co boundary, marking a transition in regional administration within the high desert.
