2018 Map of Maple Peak

About this map

Maple Peak and Bullard Peak dominate this rugged high-altitude landscape along the border of Apache National Forest and Gila National Forest. The 2018 survey reveals a terrain defined by a complex network of canyons and mesas, including Coalton Mesa and the Sierra Aguilada. Water management is the primary sign of human modification in this remote area, evidenced by a dense distribution of named stock tanks such as Maple Peak Tank, One Horn Tank, and Citizen Tank. The presence of these tanks alongside features like the Charlie Moore Trail and Buchanan Tank Trail suggests a landscape utilized for seasonal grazing and forest management. The map also documents the interstate boundary between Arizona and New Mexico, crossing through Devils Den Canyon and near the summit of Webster Mtn.
