2014 Map of Tanque

About this map

Tanque stands as a focal point in this 2014 survey of the desert landscape within the San Simon Valley of Graham County. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage patterns, where the San Simon River is fed by various seasonal watercourses such as W A Wash, Owl Wash, and Willow Spring Wash. This mapping illustrates how the local road system, including E Tanque Rd and Hackel Rd, navigates the natural topography of the high desert. Further geographic detail is provided through the identification of Cove Draw and Timber Draw, which mark the shifts in elevation across the township and range boundaries. The map provides a clear picture of land management and natural drainage in a region where water movement dictates the character of the settlement.
