1997 Map of Strayhorse

About this map

Strayhorse serves as a central point of reference in this late-twentieth-century landscape, positioned within the high elevations of the Apache National Forest. This remote section of Greenlee County is defined by the protected wilderness of the Blue Range Primitive Area, where human intervention is minimal and the terrain is carved by complex drainages like Eagle Creek and Raspberry Creek. The map documents a blend of forest management and early recreation, noting the Strayhorse FS Admin Site alongside high-altitude meadows such as Butterfly Cienega and KP Cienega. High points like Sawed Off Mountain and Blue Peak tower over a network of springs and canyons, including Lengthy Canyon and Tornado Canyon. The presence of several named parks, including Crabtree Park and Moonshine Park, suggests a long history of local use for these isolated upland basins.
