2021 Map of Bruno Peak

About this map

Bruno Peak stands as a central landmark in this high-altitude corner of the Chiricahua Mountains, where the landscape transitions into the Pedregosa Mountains to the south. The topography is defined by a complex network of drainages and passes, including Rucker Canyon and the winding Bruno Canyon. This territory is primarily managed by the Coronado National Forest, with a significant portion dedicated to the Leslie Canyon National Wildlife Refuge in the southwest quadrant. Human history in this remote section of Cochise County is marked by the presence of the Rucker Cem and ranching infrastructure. Numerous water sources, such as Winkler Tank and Glenn Tank, are scattered across the terrain, connected by primitive routes like the Bruno Pipeline Trl and the N Bar Boot Ranch Rd. The map illustrates the specialized water-management needs of this arid environment, showing how natural draws like Mesa Draw and High Lonesome Canyon dictate the placement of livestock tanks and trails.
