The Gila River corridor defines the geography of the Gila Valley, where a sophisticated network of irrigation systems like the Montezuma Canal, Highline Canal, and Sunflower Canal support the agricultural heart of Graham County. This desert landscape is anchored by the hub of Safford and the neighboring community of Thatcher, showing the transition from urban streets to the expansive San Simon Valley.
