2021 Map of Cibecue Peak

About this map

Cibecue Canyon and the surrounding high desert of Gila County define this landscape, where water management is the primary marker of human activity. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages like Cibecue Cr and Flying V Canyon, with the survey documenting a dense network of livestock or wildlife tanks and springs. Named water sources such as Wool Cutter Spring, Jackrabbit Tank, and Turkey Roost Tank are vital landmarks across the high plateaus. The presence of Cemetery Rd near the southwestern corner suggests proximity to local community history, while Cibecue Peak stands as a prominent topographical anchor in the northeast. This 2021 update by the U.S. Geological Survey details the remote road network including Cibecue Rd and Bia RD 12, which traverse the complex system of ridges and canyons.
