2014 Map of Bosque

About this map

Bosque sits at the heart of this desert landscape in the Sonoran region of Arizona, positioned along W Maricopa Rd. This 2014 survey reveals a sparse but significant network of human presence, notably the Bosque Cem located north of the primary road. The terrain is defined by the proximity of the Maricopa Mountains to the northeast and the Sand Tank Mountains to the south, with the drainage of Bender Wash cutting through the arid lowlands. To the north, the rail-aligned settlement of Shawmut marks a point of historical transit interest, while the western edge of the map begins to show the outskirts of Gila Bend. The distribution of these named points against the backdrop of the vast mountain ranges highlights the localized hubs of activity that have persisted in this corner of Maricopa County.
