About this map

Tonto Cr carves a deep central valley through the heart of this Gila County landscape, providing a vital riparian corridor within the Tonto National Forest. The settlement of Tonto Basin serves as the primary focal point, situated near the Tonto Basin Cem and the intersection of local routes like E Del Chi Dr. To the east, the terrain rises sharply into the Sierra Ancha range, characterized by complex drainages such as Gun Cr and Hardt Cr.

Evidence of historical land use and travel is found in the Slate Creek Trl 283 and various family-named or utilitarian water sources like Bootlegger Spring and H Four Tank. The topography is defined by dramatic formations, including the prominent Kayler Butte and the extensive Quartz Ledge Canyon, illustrating the high-relief environment between the basin floor and the surrounding mountain heights.
