2014 Map of Tecolote Ranch

About this map

The international border between the United States and Mexico forms the southern boundary of this portion of Pima County. Scattered ranching and residential sites such as Tecolote Ranch, San Rafael, and Vakamok are connected by Bureau of Indian Affairs routes like Bia-2 and Bia-20. The landscape is dominated by the broad Tecolote Valley, which is drained by the seasonal Chukut Kuk Wash as it flows south toward the border. To the east, the terrain rises toward the Alvarez Mountains and Wolfley Hill, illustrating the typical basin and range topography of the Tohono O'odham Nation. This survey documents the intersection of rural infrastructure and the physical geography of the Chukut Kuk District, showing the positioning of settlements like Itak and Tatum Vo relative to the desert washes and cross-border geography.
