2014 Map of Galleta Flat West

About this map

The Little Rincon Mountains and the eastern edge of the Rincon Mountains define this landscape, where the high desert meets the protected lands of Coronado National Forest and Saguaro National Park. The survey illustrates a terrain of seasonal drainages and essential water sources, such as Bear Spring, Alboud Spring, and San Juan Spring, which supported the early cattle ranching and homesteading history of the area. Notable landmarks like San Juan Hill and Star Peak anchor the high ground, while the lower flats are marked by features like the White Cross Cem near Agua Verde Cr. Local infrastructure is represented by a network of ranch roads including N Desert Sanctuary Rd and Mackenzie Rd, connecting isolated sites like Mackenzie Tank and Rock Pile Tank across the arid basins of Galleta Flat and Secret Pasture.
