About this map

The Gila River cuts a prominent path through this corner of Grant County, where the small community of Redrock serves as a focal point for the surrounding high-desert landscape. To the northeast, the river passes through the Gila Middle Box, a topographical bottleneck flanked by mineral-rich canyons where historical mining activity is evident. Sites like the Grey Eagle Mine, Jennie Mines, and the Blue Eagle Prospect indicate a legacy of prospecting and extraction in the rugged terrain surrounding Lydian Peak.

Cultural and conservation history is preserved at the Redrock State Wildlife Experimental Area and the Old Indian Village site. Genealogists and local historians can find the Redrock Cemetery near the river, while the ranching heritage of the region is mapped through numerous water features and family-named landmarks like the Spencer Windmill and Turner Windmill. The map tracks several rural routes, including Game Department RD and Bird Nest RD, connecting remote canyon systems such as Graveyard Canyon and Starvation Canyon.
