About this map

Theodore Roosevelt Lake dominates the southern edge of this Arizona landscape, where the waters meet Indian Point and Glendale Point. The map documents a rugged drainage system where Greenback Creek, Oak Creek, and Methodist Creek carve through high desert terrain defined by prominent elevations such as Horse Range Mesa and Cline Mesa.

Remote land use is evidenced by Bouquet Ranch in the west and Conway Ranch in the north, situated near Greenback Valley. The area’s complex topography is further marked by numerous peaks and canyons, including Three Sisters Mountain, Boneyback Peak, and the deep cut of Devils Canyon. Extensive water infrastructure for ranching or land management is visible through a network of small tanks and springs like Schoolhouse Tank, Yellow Jacket Spring, and Salt Gulch Tank.
