About this map

The confluence of Carrizo Creek and the Salt River dominates this Gila County landscape, where deep incisions like the Salt River Canyon define the topography. This 2018 survey documents a region defined by complex drainage systems and isolated water sources essential for land management. The presence of numerous named catchment features, such as Bill Schroeder Tank, John Moore Tank, and Bonehead Tank, suggests a landscape utilized for ranching or wildlife management where water security is paramount.

Remote springs, including Warm Spring, Soda Spring, and Golden Roll Spring, are scattered throughout the rugged elevation changes. Canyons like Abdoul Canyon and Popcorn Canyon provide natural corridors through the terrain, while prominent landmarks like Bull Butte and Cowboy Butte serve as distinct navigational anchors. The limited road network, represented by Co RD 816 and Co RD 819, underscores the area's undeveloped and specialized character in the early 21st century.
