2021 Map of Bowie Mountain South

About this map

The Chiricahua Mountains dominate this landscape of the eastern Arizona desert, where high peaks like Bowie Mtn and Red Mtn rise above deep drainage systems such as Maverick Canyon and Anderson Canyon. This modern survey records the transition between the managed lands of the Coronado National Forest and the protected wilderness of the Chiricahua National Monument. Local ranching history is evidenced by a network of private access points including Red Wine Ranch Rd and S Rancho Sierra Rd. Genealogy researchers can identify several small burial sites tucked into the terrain, including Riggs Cem, Erickson Cem, and the Neighborhood Cem. Water sources are vital in this arid environment, marked here by The Comet Spring and the intermittent flows of Pine Cr and Little Sand Wash.
