About this map

Redstone sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape, where the Pinos Altos Range meets a network of drainages and seasonal water sources. The area's mining history is represented at the southern edge of the quadrangle by the Golden Rule Mine and the Little Victor Tunnel near Rio de Arenas. These sites, tucked into the foothills, speak to the mineral extraction that helped shape this region of Grant County.

Outdoor recreation and memorial sites are frequent across the terrain, from the Gila Scout Camp along Meadow Creek to several forest campsites like McMillan Campground. The presence of the Ben Lilly Memorial near the headwaters of Bear Creek honors a notable local figure amidst peaks such as Signal Peak and TX Mountain. Connectivity is maintained through a web of Forest Service roads including Signal Peak Rd and Bear Creek Rd, which provide access to the rugged interior and various water tanks like Three Pine Tank.
