About this map

The Dragoon Mountains dominate the western half of this 2014 survey, rising to prominent points at Mt Glenn and Cochise Peak. This area, preserved within the Coronado National Forest, centers on the significant geographical and historical landmark of Cochise Stronghold. The terrain is defined by steep canyons and granite formations, including Rockfellow Dome and Stronghold Canyon West, while vital water sources like Halfmoon Tank and Johns Well are noted throughout the desert landscape.

East of the mountains, the development of Arizona Sun Sites shows a regularized grid of residential streets such as W Apache Way and W Treasure Rd. This juxtaposition between the strictly surveyed residential blocks and the irregular, high-elevation landmarks like China Peak and Jones Mtn illustrates the 21st-century interface between modern settlement and the preserved wilderness of southeastern Arizona.
