2021 Map of Palo Alto Ranch
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
The Coyote Mountains dominate the northwestern corner of this landscape, where the steep descent of Mendoza Canyon gives way to the broad expanse of the Altar Valley. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including the prominent Brawley Wash and Altar Wash, which flow northward through the arid basin. Historically significant for ranching operations, the area is dotted with numerous water catchments such as San Patricio Tank, Saint George Tank, and Cactus Tank, which are vital for sustaining life in this dry climate.
