2014 Map of Tom Thumb

About this map

Chiulikam stands as a primary settlement in this arid landscape, situated just north of the Hickiwan Valley. The area is defined by the sharp rise of the Sauceda Mountains, where prominent summits like Tom Thumb and Stinson Peak provide clear landmarks across the desert floor. Drainage patterns in this high-relief terrain are established by the winding paths of Sauceda Wash and Hickiwan Wash, which collect seasonal runoff from the surrounding peaks. The map also documents the administrative divide along the Maricopa Co Pima Co line, showing how this political boundary intersects the natural topography of the desert and valley floor during the early twenty-first century.
