2020 Map of Indian Peaks East

About this map

Gila National Forest encompasses much of this high-desert landscape, where deep drainage systems like Sawmill Canyon and Corduroy Draw define the topography. The terrain rises toward the prominent Indian Peaks in the west, while the eastern portion is marked by the presence of the Adobe Ranch Private Airport, an isolated aviation landing site. Water management is a primary feature of this arid region, evidenced by numerous named stock tanks and catchment basins such as Silver Dollar Tank, Tub-in-the-Flat Tank, and Square Tank. These features suggest a landscape primarily utilized for ranching and forest management, where seasonal runoff through Adobe Canyon and Springtime Canyon provides critical resources for the local environment and agricultural operations.
