2018 Map of Stewart Mountain

About this map

Sheep Bridge serves as a key crossing point where the Salt River winds through the protected landscape of the Tonto National Forest. This 2018 survey reveals the topographical complexity of the Sonoran Desert, dominated by the Stewart Mtn massif and the Goldfield Mountains. The presence of Saguaro Lake at the northeastern corner of the map highlights the managed hydrology of the region, providing a contrast to the seasonal drainages found in Bulldog Canyon and Whiteface Canyon. Modern infrastructure is visible through a network of trails and roads such as N Boot Hill Pkwy and N Old Bush Hwy, which provide access to geological landmarks like Sunrise Arch and the prominent Blue Point. The map provides a detailed view of the high-relief terrain surrounding Dome Mtn and Lone Mtn, documenting the area before significant modern shifts in access or recreation management.
