About this map

San Carlos Indian Reservation and the Tonto National Forest meet in this mid-1960s landscape, defined by a network of drainage basins and high peaks. The terrain is dominated by the seasonal paths of Cammerman Wash and Ramboz Wash, which flow south toward the Southern Pacific railroad corridor. Significant geological landmarks including Quartzite Peak and Granite Butte provide verticality to the arid environment.

Water management is the primary sign of human activity here, with numerous improvements scattered across the canyons. Isolated features such as Champion Tank, Gilbert Well, and Champion Spring highlight the essential infrastructure required for life and livestock in the Arizona interior. A lone aviation marker, the Wheeler Landing Field, sits centrally along the wash, while a complex system of jeep trails connects these remote watering points and peaks.
