About this map

The Mogollon Rim forms the dramatic centerpiece of this 2021 topographic survey, marking the transition between the high Mogollon Plateau and the deeply dissected canyons of the Tonto National Forest below. This sharp escarpment is punctuated by distinct geographical markers such as OW Point, North OW Point, and Canyon Creek Point. The plateau above is defined by a dense network of forest roads and trails, including the General Crook Trl and the Rim Road, serving the residential pocket of Forest Lakes Estates.

Water management in this high-elevation landscape is evident through numerous small reservoirs like Pinto Lake and Jacob Lake, as well as named livestock tanks including Bruno Tank and Eubank Tank. To the south, the terrain drops precipitously into a complex system of drainages, where Valentine Canyon and Colcord Canyon flank Valentine Ridge. The presence of a Fish Hatchery near the canyon floor underscores the local importance of these perennial water sources within the larger forest management area.
