About this map

McNary sits at the high-elevation junction of the Sitgreaves National Forest and the Fort Apache Indian Reservation, serving as a focal point for timber and water resources in this part of Arizona. The settlement is clearly defined by its industrial and community infrastructure, featuring an Athletic Field, Substation, and proximity to several Cinder Pit locations. The landscape is crisscrossed by an extensive network of Old Railroad Grade and various timber-access routes like the Upper Log Road and Lower Log Road, indicating a history shaped by logging operations.

Water management is central to the area, with the Williams Creek National Fish Hatchery located just north of the North Fork White River. Natural water features such as Cluff Cienega and Haystack Cienega dot the terrain alongside man-made tanks like Buck Spring Tank. Topography is defined by prominent peaks including Haystack Mtn and Blue Mtn, while Gomez Creek and Trout Creek drain the surrounding slopes.
