About this map

The high country of the Sitgreaves National Forest unfolds across this survey, centered on the growing communities of Pinetop-Lakeside and the southern reaches of Show Low. The landscape is defined by its complex network of recreational and motorized trails, including the Maverick Motorized route and the Panorama Shortcut Trail, reflecting the area's transition into a modern outdoor destination. Notable for its volcanic topography, the map identifies prominent peaks like Porter Mtn and Woolhouse Mtn, alongside the geological interest of the Ice Cave near Peterson Tank.

Water management is a central theme, shown through dozens of livestock and drainage tanks such as Cholla Tank and Galahad Tank, which dot the timbered mesas. Along the southern edge, the commercial and residential core of Pinetop and Lakeside is visible, including the Lakeside Cem and Show Low Lake. To the northeast, the siding at Sponseller remains as a marker of the region's rail history near Sponseller Siding.
