2014 Map of Globe

About this map

The copper mining corridor between Globe and Miami anchors this 2014 survey of Gila County, Arizona. The urban landscape reflects decades of industrial activity, with several distinct settlements including Lower Miami, Claypool, and Little Acres clustered along the major transportation routes of Us-60 and the Copper Basin Railway. The topographic detail highlights the massive scale of material movement in the region, evidenced by the Miami Tailings Pond and various canyons such as Warrior Canyon and Van Winkle Canyon. North of the urban centers, the terrain transitions into the Tonto National Forest, where named peaks like Ramboz Peak and Crash-up Mtn rise above the drainage of Pinal Creek. This sheet also captures community landmarks like the Bullion Plaza School and the somberly named Graveyard Canyon, providing a clear view of the area's social and industrial geography.
