About this map

Carnero Creek meanders through this high-altitude landscape of eastern Arizona, shaping the distribution of isolated water sources and small-scale developments in the years following the turn of the twenty-first century. The area is defined by its hydrology, featuring localized landmarks such as Cheney Lake and a series of named water points including Schuster Spring, Corral Spring, and Gibbons Spring. These features suggest a history of livestock management and early settlement patterns typical of the region's ranching heritage. Green Spot appears as the primary named locality, situated north of the creek. Connectivity across this portion of Apache County is maintained by Highway 60, which cuts through the northern half of the quadrangle, and County Road 4385, providing access to this high-country terrain.
