About this map

Forest Lakes Estates sits atop the Mogollon Plateau, a region defined by the dramatic drop-off of the Mogollon Rim. This survey documents a landscape managed for both timber and recreation, straddling the boundary between the Sitgreaves National Forest and the Tonto National Forest. The map shows a sophisticated network of seasonal routes, including the Willow Springs Bike Loop and specialized trails like the Sardine Snowmobile path and the Wedding Day trail.

Water management is prominent through numerous named tanks and springs, such as Saint Joe Spring and Sandstone Tank, which support the high-country ecology. Historical transport is represented by the General Crook trail, which traverses the rugged terrain near Larson Canyon. The complex topography is punctuated by prominent lookouts like OW Point and Canyon Creek Point, providing a clear view of the deep drainages that cut into the rim, including Valentine Canyon and Colcord Canyon.
