2021 Map of Tucson North

About this map

The northern reaches of Tucson meet the dramatic rise of the Santa Catalina Mountains in this modern topographic record. The map details the suburban expansion into the Catalina Foothills and the established communities of Oro Valley and Kleindale. For those researching local heritage, several significant burial grounds are noted, including the Pima County Cem / Tucson Pioneer Cem and the Binghampton Cem near the banks of the Rillito River. The transition from urban density to the protected wilderness of the Coronado National Forest is clearly defined, with trails like the Pima Trl and Finger-Rock Trl ascending toward landmarks such as Pusch Peak and Mt Kimball. The drainage patterns of the Pima Canyon and Geronimo Wash provide a clear view of how the desert landscape directs water from the high ridges down toward the valley floor.
