About this map

Teapot Mountain and the surrounding high desert of the Tonto National Forest dominate this 2014 survey. The landscape is defined by the industrial footprint of the Ray mining area and its complex network of nearby terrain, including Copper Canyon, Copper Butte, and Sonora Hill. The topographic data reveals the heavy human alteration of the land near Sandow Hill and Last Turn Hill alongside natural drainage systems like Arnett Cr and White Canyon.

Water sources are scattered throughout this arid environment, ranging from natural features like Sun Hot Spring and Walnut Spring to man-made cattle tanks such as Crucifixion Tank and Black Hills Tank. The mapping shows the path of State Hwy 177 as it snakes through Arnett Canyon and past the distinctive peak of Sleeping Beauty Mtn, providing a clear record of the intersection between Arizona's mining industry and its national forest lands.
