About this map

The desert crossroads of Three Points and Robles Junction serve as the focal point of this Pima County landscape, where modern road development meets a system of seasonal drainage channels. The area is defined by the convergence of prominent watercourses including Brawley Wash, Mendoza Wash, and Soto Wash, which flow from the higher elevations of the Roskruge Mountains in the northwest.

Evidence of ranching and land management is scattered across the dry terrain, represented by several livestock water sources such as Sierrita Tank, Javelina Tank, and San Juan Tank. The northern reaches are marked by the Corner Windmill, a traditional landmark in an area increasingly divided by residential streets with distinctive regional names like Howling Coyote Trl and 2 Sisters Dr. This 2011 survey captures the transition from open desert range to more structured rural development.
