2017 Map of O Bar O Canyon East

About this map

O Bar O Canyon and Beaver Canyon carve through this high-altitude landscape in the Gila National Forest, revealing a region defined by its water management and grazing infrastructure. The map shows an extensive network of artificial tanks, such as Shipping Pasture Tank, Petes Tank, and West Shipping Pen Tank, which are critical for livestock in this arid environment. These features, often named for specific uses or individuals like Casey Tank and Chu Chu Tank, indicate a long history of ranching operations within the forest boundaries. Transportation across this complex terrain is facilitated by State Hwy 78 and Loco Mountain Rd, while the presence of Buck Pass and Railroad Canyon highlights the natural corridors used to navigate the elevation changes. The land is strictly organized by the Public Land Survey System, as seen in the grid of t8s r13w and surrounding townships, reflecting the administrative oversight of the Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service.
