About this map

The Santa Teresa Mountains dominate this landscape within the Coronado National Forest, where high peaks and deep drainage systems define the Graham County terrain. Water is the primary architect of the topography here, with prominent corridors like Goodwin Wash and Hackberry Canyon cutting through the high ground. The naming of features such as Preacher Canyon, Holdup Canyon, and Gardner Canyon suggests a history of cattle ranching and early travel through these mountain passes.

Elevations vary significantly from the heights of Cobre Grande Peak and Jackson Mtn down to the recessed areas of The Box and Fisher Basin. Numerous isolated water sources, including Sycamore Spring and Lone Pine Spring, are critical landmarks in this arid environment. The map also traces the network of county roads, such as Co RD 40, which provide access to these remote reaches of the Arizona wilderness.
