About this map

Gu Vo sits at the heart of this high desert landscape, positioned where the Tonoka Valley meets the lower reaches of the Gu Vo Hills. The settlement is a primary point of reference in a region defined by its drainage systems and mountain passes, including the nearby Gu Vo Pass and the western edge of the Quijotoa Valley. Transport in this part of Pima County relies on a network of desert routes such as Indian Rte 1, Indian Rte 28, and N Well Rd, which navigate the wide basins between ranges.

Water flow is ephemeral but topographically significant, with the Gu Vo Wash and Pia Oik Wash carving paths through the Barajita Valley. To the far southwest, the terrain rises toward the Ajo Range, illustrating the typical basin-and-range structure of southern Arizona. This survey captures the modern road alignments and land divisions across T15S and T16S, providing a clear record of the area's current geographical and infrastructure layout.
