About this map

Mt Turnbull and the Santa Teresa Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in southeastern Arizona. The terrain is defined by a series of sharp peaks and deep drainages, including the prominent Stanley Butte and Crystal Peak. A network of unpaved tracks, such as House Road 550 and Co Rd 540, provide the only access into these remote reaches of the Coronado National Forest.

The distribution of water sources like Post Office Spring, Mitchell Cabin Spring, and Grapevine Spring reveals the essential survival points for livestock and early travelers in this arid environment. The naming of canyons and draws, such as Musk Hog Canyon and Chittakow Draw, reflects local history and the ranching heritage of Graham County. Notable landmarks like The Box and Granite Peak serve as primary navigational anchors across the complex topography.
