About this map

The copper-mining town of San Manuel sits at the northeastern edge of this 2021 study, overlooking a complex network of arid drainages and mountainous terrain. The map follows the sharp transition from the residential grid of San Manuel into the high elevations of the Santa Catalina Mountains and the protected lands of the Coronado National Forest. This rugged landscape is defined by its vertical relief, with prominent peaks like Apache Peak and Rice Peak rising above deep incisions such as Nugget Canyon and Bonito Canyon.

Smaller settlements and sites like Campo Bonito and Highjinks are positioned along the transition between the valley floor and the rising slopes of Oracle Ridge. The map documents a diverse network of land use, from the managed forest boundaries to the long-distance Arizona National Scenic Trl. Water sources are critical markers in this environment, with locations like Ray Spring, Bela Seco Spring, and Tule Spring providing vital points of reference along the seasonal Peppersauce Wash and Catalina Wash.
