About this map

The Theodore Roosevelt Lake reservoir dominates this landscape where the Salt River meets the confluence of numerous desert washes. The settlement of Roosevelt sits near the eastern shore, providing a focal point for the region's historical developments. Nearby, the Historic Roosevelt Cem offers a direct link to the community's past residents. The map captures a complex network of rugged terrain and water management features, including several named coves like Cholla Bay Area and Bachelor Cove Area.

Within the Tonto National Forest, significant recreational and historical routes are documented, such as the Arizona National Scenic Tr and the legendary Apache Trl. The topography is marked by prominent elevations like Pico Derecho Mountain and Government Hill, while the valley floor shows the transition from the Salt River Valley to the surrounding peaks of the Mazatzal Mountains. Rare desert features, including Tugokay Hot Springs and Buckhorn Spring, indicate the importance of water sources in this arid environment.
