About this map

Arizona Sun Sites sits at the edge of the high desert, where a modern residential grid meets the dramatic eastern slopes of the Dragoon Mountains. This 2021 landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the developed streets of the valley floor and the protected wilderness of the Coronado National Forest. In the higher elevations, the map records prominent geological features such as Rockfellow Dome and Mt Glenn, alongside numerous drainages like Stronghold Canyon East and Stronghold Canyon West.

For those researching water sources in this arid environment, several key features are noted including Halfmoon Tank, Barret Spring, and Tunnel Spring. The road network north of the Sun Sites area includes numerous named ways such as Geronimo Way and Cochise Way, reflecting the local historical figures associated with this terrain. The map captures the continued coexistence of residential expansion and the wild topography of Cochise Peak and Middlemarch Canyon.
