2013 Map of Hillsboro Peak

About this map

Hillsboro Peak and the high ridges of the Black Range dominate this 2013 survey of the rugged boundary between Grant and Sierra counties. Located within the Gila National Forest, the terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and named canyons, such as Bear Trap Canyon, Noonday Canyon, and Quaking Asp Canyon. The most prominent travel corridor is State Hwy 152, which winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle, crossing the continental divide at Emory Pass. This mountain pass serves as a primary transit point through the high timber, connecting the disparate watersheds of the western range.
