1996 Map of Pedregosa Mountains West

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Coronado National Forest and the Leslie Canyon National Wildlife Refuge anchor this corner of Cochise County, where the high-elevation terrain of the Pedregosa Mountains meets the desert floor. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns and verticality, from the prominent Packsaddle Mountain and Castle Dome to the winding depths of Tom Ketchum Canyon and Lonesome Canyon. Evidence of human industry and resource extraction is scattered throughout the southern reaches of the range, marked by several Mine Shafts, a Prospect, and Quarries near Deep Canyon. This arid environment relied heavily on seasonal water sources and intermittent flows, indicated by the presence of Walnut Spring, Mud Springs Draw, and the broad Poverty Flat. The network of 4wd tracks suggests a region utilized for ranching, mining, and conservation, maintaining its primitive character late into the twentieth century.
