2012 Map of Sonora

About this map

Sonora sits at a geographic crossroads in Sutton County where the high desert plateau is carved by seasonal drainages. This 2012 survey reveals the town's grid established between Lowrey Draw and the Dry Devils River, a waterway that remains dry through much of the year but defines the local topography. To the north, the Soil Conservation Service Site 8 Reservoir indicates the critical importance of water management in this arid region, while the Sonora Municipal Airport and a network of frontage and ranch roads facilitate travel across the wide-open landscape.
