About this map

The Gila Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Graham County, centered on the prominent peak of Bryce Mountain. This 2014 survey documents a rugged network of canyons and washes, characterized by an extensive system of water management features essential for ranching and land use in the arid Arizona interior. Named livestock tanks such as Drift Fence Tank, Airplane Canyon Tank, and Oak Trough Tank are distributed across the terrain, reflecting the human adaptation to the local topography.

Strategic passage points like Pima Gap and the broad expanse of Bobs Flat provide a sense of the traditional travel corridors through the range. The map details various water sources including Hells Dive Spring and Little Spring, which feed into drainage systems like Martinez Wash and Peck Wash. This modern topographic study offers a clear view of the complex drainages of Lopas Canyon and Big Spring Canyon as they descend from the higher elevations into the surrounding basins.
