2011 Map of Booger Canyon

About this map

Lookout Mountain stands as a prominent high point over this desert landscape, where the confluence of several canyons and seasonal washes defines the local geography. The southern reaches of the map are anchored by the Aravaipa Creek corridor, which includes the Aravaipa Canyon Primitive Area East Entrance and the Aravaipa Canal. This area reflects a history of water management and transit through difficult terrain, evidenced by the presence of the Salazar Cemetery and numerous family-named canyons such as Martinez Canyon and Maroga Canyon. A complex network of springs, including Cottonwood Spring and McKinney Spring, along with livestock tanks like Chet Tank and Double Tank, illustrate the critical importance of water sources in this arid region of Pinal County.
