2021 Map of Gila Butte SE

About this map

Sacaton serves as a primary settlement within this desert corridor, where modern irrigation infrastructure meets the ancient path of the Gila River. The landscape is defined by the transition from the river's northern floodplains to the rugged elevations of the Sacaton Mountains in the south near Burns. A sophisticated network of water management is visible through the Casa Blanca Canal, Little-Gila Canal, and the accompanying Southside Canal Rd, illustrating the intensive agricultural development of the region. The map also highlights local infrastructure such as the Seed Farm Rd and the Skill Center Rd, which reflect the community's focus on land use and education. This 2021 survey provides a clear view of the Pinal County interior, showing how historical waterways and contemporary roadways like Indian Rte 1 and Gasline Rd navigate the arid terrain.
