2011 Map of Big Horn Peak

About this map

The Big Horn Mountains define the northern horizon of this Maricopa County landscape, where the high desert meets a developing grid of agricultural and transport infrastructure. Dominating the upper section of the map is the Central Arizona Project Aqueduct, a critical water artery that courses through the arid terrain near New Tank. The area's shift toward organized development is visible in the emergence of the I-10 Ranch and an extensive network of north-south avenues and east-west roads that impose a geometric order on the desert floor.
