1981 Map of Murphy Peak

About this map

Coronado National Forest defines the eastern and central portion of this 1981 survey, where the Tumacacori Mountains rise sharply above the Arizona high desert. The landscape is a network of arid drainage systems, including Moyza Canyon, Cedar Canyon, and the East Fork of the Murphy drainage. Human presence in this high-relief terrain is documented through a series of water management features essential for ranching and survival, ranging from Papalote Tank in the northwest to Arivaca Lake in the southwest.
