2021 Map of Growler Peak

About this map

Growler Peak dominates this arid landscape in Pima County, serving as a primary landmark within the greater Growler Mountains. This 2021 survey illustrates a region defined by dramatic topographic relief and seasonal drainage systems, notably Daniels Arroyo which cuts through the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The map captures the natural corridor of Charlie Bell Pass, a significant geographic notch between the peaks that has historically facilitated movement through this desert terrain. To the west, the land descends into the broad expanse of Growler Valley, while isolated elevations like Sheep Peak, Childs Mtn, and Pack Rat Hill provide distinct navigational points. The survey provides a clear record of the Public Land Survey System grid, including the intersection of t11s r8w and t12s r7w, illustrating how modern administrative boundaries are laid over this ancient geological formation.
