2014 Map of Cutter

About this map

Cutter serves as a central transportation hub in this Gila County landscape, where the paths of Us-70 and the San Carlos Apache Airport intersect against the rising terrain of the desert. To the northwest, the edge of East Globe marks the transition from the city toward the more open, high-relief country of the Tonto National Forest. This 2014 survey documents a complex network of water management features essential for this arid environment, including numerous named tanks like Hole in the Rock Tank, Copper Hills Tank, and Cutter Tank. The topography is defined by significant drainage systems such as Ramboz Wash and Ranch Cr, which cut through the landscape near notable peaks like Hog Mtn. Steep-walled features such as Bull Canyon and Arrastra Canyon illustrate the erosive power of seasonal flows across the different townships and ranges.
