2023 Map of Pelona Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Pelona Mtn dominates this high-altitude landscape in Gila National Forest, where the topography is defined by the sharp transition between canyon floors and elevated plateaus. The Continental Divide winds through the eastern portion of the map, a geographic spine that dictates the drainage patterns of the surrounding terrain. This remote area is characterized by a sophisticated network of water management features essential for land use in the arid Southwest, including numerous livestock tanks such as Fullerton Spring Tank, Cornelius Tank, and Stallings Tank. The presence of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trl cutting across the central plains and ridges highlights the area's significance for long-distance navigation. Deep drainages like Juanita Canyon, Bear Track Canyon, and Rock Corral Canyon score the western slopes, suggesting a history of seasonal runoff and localized spring activity at sites like Bruja Spring.
