2021 Map of Cimarron Peak

About this map

Hickiwan Valley serves as a low-lying anchor for this corner of Pima County, where the seasonal waters of Hickiwan Wash trace the desert floor. The landscape is defined by the sharp verticality of the Sauceda Mountains in the northwest and the prominent rise of Cimarron Peak to the east. Sparse settlements such as Emika and Tatai Toak are situated along the lower elevations, connected by local routes including Indian Rte 13 and Stor Pitka Rd. The presence of Pipeline Rd cutting across the northern reaches indicates modern utility infrastructure traversing this arid terrain. This 2021 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides an intricate view of topographic relief, from the summit of Roadrunner Mtn to the alluvial patterns established by the region's washes.
