2021 Map of O'Leary Peak

About this map

O'Leary Peak and the volcanic landscape of northern Arizona dominate this 2021 topographic record, where the Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument meets the Coconino National Forest. The map details a complex geological terrain defined by the Bonito Lava Flow and numerous prominent peaks, including Robinson Mtn, Robinson Crater, Darton Dome, and the eastern slopes of San Francisco Mtn. This high-desert environment is marked by an extensive system of catchment basins and water tanks, such as Old Grand Canyon Tank and Chicos Tank, which underscore the critical importance of water management in this arid plateau. Movement through the area is traced along Highway 89 and back-country paths like the E Sacred Peaks Trl and O'Leary Trl. Wide drainages such as Deadman Wash carve through the Sinagua Valley and Medicine Valley, connecting the high ridges to the broad expanses of Deadman Flat.
