2004 Map of Picacho Colorado

USGS Topo · Published 2007

About this map

The Salt River carves a deep path through this territory, serving as a natural boundary between the Fort Apache Indian Reservation and the Tonto National Forest. In the mid-2000s, this landscape was defined by its dramatic elevation changes, from the prominent Picacho Colorado in the southeast to the expansive Flat near the riverbanks. Human activity in this remote area is marked by several prospects and a mine shaft located near Medicine Butte, indicating a history of mineral exploration. Water sources are critical landmarks here, with locations like Albert Spring, Cedar Spring, and the Corral Tank providing essential points for livestock or wildlife in the arid environment. The map details a network of canyons and ridges, including the notable Mustang Ridge, while the Salt River Canyon Wilderness protects the southern reaches of the river corridor.
