2018 Map of Kennedy Peak

About this map

Coronado National Forest defines the character of this high-elevation landscape, dominated by the peaks and drainages of the Galiuro Mountains. Significant landmarks include the China Peak Observatory Airport and the prominent Kennedy Peak in the southern portion of the sheet. The terrain is marked by a complex network of seasonal water sources and canyons, such as Rattlesnake Cr and Horse Canyon. Local history and land use are evident in the naming of water infrastructure like Horse Canyon Tank and Home Ranch Tank, alongside isolated natural features like Powers Garden Spring. This survey captures the remote character of the Galiuro range, where topography ranges from the flat expanse of Rattlesnake Mesa to the sharp relief of Topout Peak and Rockhouse Peak.
