2014 Map of Odart Mountain

About this map

Odart Mountain and Maverick Mountain dominate this high-elevation landscape in the eastern Apache County mountains, where complex drainage networks define the terrain. The presence of Bull Creek Cienega indicates a seasonally wet meadow environment, a vital water source in this arid region alongside Mavepick Lake. Deep incisions such as Mountain Lion Canyon and Cozen Canyon illustrate the erosive power of local watercourses like Tonto Cr and Big Bonito Cr. This 2014 survey documents the Bureau of Indian Affairs road network, including Bia-70 and Bia-530, which provide access through the varying topography of the Lofer Bench. The map captures a moment in the modern management of these tribal lands, showing how infrastructure follows the natural contours of the creeks and ridges.
