About this map

Growler Valley dominates this arid landscape in Pima County, defined by its complex network of ephemeral drainage systems. These desert corridors, including San Cristobal Wash and Growler Wash, dictate the movement of water across the open basin. To the west, the topographic relief of the Antelope Hills rises sharply from the valley floor, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding alluvial plains.

In the southern reaches of the map, the terrain transitions into the distinct geographic areas of Deer Hollow and Chinaman Flat. The presence of Redtail Tank in the north suggests the critical importance of managed water sources in this environment. The map provides a precise look at the township and range survey system, documenting the vast, undeveloped stretches of the Arizona desert during the early twenty-first century.
