2017 Map of Collins Park

About this map

Collins Park serves as a central hub in this high-altitude landscape within the Gila National Forest. The geography is defined by a complex network of canyons and mountains, such as the Long Canyon Mountains and Sawmill Canyon, which historically shaped travel and ranching patterns. A significant portion of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail winds through the terrain, passing near landmarks like Pinon Knob and Ghost Lake. The map reveals a land heavily managed for water resources, with numerous named tanks and springs, including Dutchman Spring and Sheep Camp Tank, indicating the area's ongoing importance for livestock and wildlife. Forestry access is maintained via Bursum Rd and Forest Rd 94, which connect these remote basins and ridges.
