2021 Map of Springerville NW

About this map

Apache National Forest lands dominate the southwestern portion of this high-elevation landscape in Apache County. This 2021 survey illustrates a terrain defined by volcanic features and drainage patterns, most notably the prominent rise of Cerro Quemado in the northwest. Water resources are critical in this arid environment, marked by several named water sources such as Schuster Spring, Corral Spring, and Gibbons Spring. These springs and the ephemeral Carnero Creek have historically dictated movement and land use across the high plateau.
