About this map

The Roskruge Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape within the Papago Indian Reservation, where water management defines the human footprint. The map documents a network of survival in an arid environment, including Indio Tank, West Tank, and White Tank, alongside specific groundwater sources like La Tortuga Well. Settlement and activity are concentrated near these water points and ephemeral drainages like Pescadero Wash and Aguirre Wash.
