About this map

Caine Springs and Willow Seep serve as rare watering points in this arid landscape along the border of Wayne County. The drainage network is dominated by the sprawling Salt Wash, which is joined by tributaries including Last Chance Wash, Middle Desert Wash, and Caineville Wash. These seasonal waterways carve through a complex topography of mesas and ridges, most notably the high ground of Black Mtn and the striking geologic formation of N Caineville Reef.

Evidence of human transit and land use appears via the Hartnet Valley Rd in the southwest and the designated Wood Bench. The terrain transitions from the high Moroni Slopes in the north down toward deep erosional features like Corral Canyon and Hartnet Draw. This 2014 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a region defined by its hydraulic features and topographic extremes, where water sources dictate the placement of local landmarks.
