2014 Map of McFadden Peak

About this map

McFadden Peak and the high ridges of the Sierra Ancha dominate this portion of the Tonto National Forest. This 2014 survey documents a landscape defined by significant elevation changes and seasonal water sources, where the Globe-Young Hwy Scn provides the primary transit corridor through the highlands. The geography is marked by isolated peaks like McFadden Horse Mtn and Cow Flat Mtn, interspersed with mesas such as Squaw Mesa and Pendleton Mesa. Ranching and wilderness management are evident through numerous cattle tanks and springs, including Reg Tank, Paul Tank, and Ash Creek Spring. Deep drainages like Cherry Cr and Turkey Cr carve through the terrain, while landmarks such as Elephant Rock and Board Tree Saddle provide critical navigation points for those traversing these remote Arizona uplands.
