About this map

Redondo Ruins (Butterfield Stage Sta) anchors the northern valley, marking a historic transportation corridor where the Southern Pacific railroad and early stage routes once traversed the desert floor. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the irrigated agricultural fields of the North Gila Valley and South Gila Valley to the arid expanse of the Yuma Desert. Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the complex network of the Gila Gravity Main Canal and several gaging stations along the Gila River.
