About this map

Luke Air Force Range dominates this mid-1980s topographic landscape, where the shifting sands of the Sonoran Desert meet the sharp topography of the Mountains. This region is defined by its arid drainage networks, primarily the broad Sand Tank Wash and Quijotoa Wash, which reveal the hydrology of the Maricopa backcountry before modern development patterns. Notable landmarks such as Dragons Tooth and the distinctive Squaw Tit peak serve as primary orientation points for those studying the rugged terrain of the Arizona interior. The inclusion of Burro Spring marks a rare and critical water source in a landscape otherwise characterized by seasonal washes and extreme exposure. This survey provides a precise look at the military boundary and natural landforms during a period when these ranges remained largely isolated from the growing metropolitan footprints to the north.
