About this map

Allens Peak and the surrounding Ninetysix Hills define this arid portion of Pinal County, where the landscape is shaped by desert washes and isolated summits. The drainage patterns of Paisano Wash and Box O Wash cut through the terrain, punctuated by essential water catchments such as Burro Flaco Tank, Rincon Tank, and Middle Mountain Tank. These tanks serve as critical landmarks in a region dominated by open range and ranching activity.

Transportation through this high desert relies on the E Florence-Kelvin Hwy, which traverses the northern sections alongside roads like Whitlow Ranch Rd and Helmwheel Ranch Rd. The map details the transition from the Cat Hills to the more prominent Middle Mountain, illustrating the topographic complexity of this southwest Arizona corridor. Smaller features like Tank Number Twentytwo and Coyote Tank further document the historic reliance on local water management in this sparsely populated environment.
