About this map

Globe anchors the northwest corner of this Gila County survey, where the urban edge meets the expansive drainages of the Tonto National Forest. The landscape is defined by its water management and ranching heritage, evidenced by numerous named catchment features like Capitan Hayes Tank, Copper Hills Tank, and Hole in the Rock Tank. The eastern portion of the map centers on the small settlement of Cutter and the nearby San Carlos Apache Airport, situated along the corridors of Ramboz Wash and Gilson Wash.

Transitioning into the higher elevations to the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex with deep cuts like Arrastra Canyon and Bull Canyon. This area is dotted with natural water sources such as Haunted Spring and Coyote Hole Spring, which were historically critical for movement through this arid environment. The road network, including the Coolidge Dam Rd and Old Winkleman Rd, traces traditional paths through the foothills toward the Soda Canyon and Hog Mountain area.
