2011 Map of Diaz Peak

About this map

Diaz Peak and the surrounding high desert terrain dominate this Pima County landscape, where the Ajo Range and the Diablo Mountains define the northern and central topography. This 2011 survey illustrates the intricate drainage patterns of the Sonoran Desert, most notably the winding course of the Siovi Shuatak Wash as it moves through the Siovi Shuatak Pass. Human presence is minimal and primarily marked by infrastructure for travel and water access, such as Ajo Mountain Dr and the isolated Manuels Well. The map captures a largely untouched wilderness area, where movement is dictated by geographic gaps like Sweetwater Pass and the towering landmarks of Diaz Spire and the Sierra de Santa Rosa.
