About this map

Redstone sits at the heart of this landscape within the Gila National Forest, where the topography is defined by the high elevations of the Pinos Altos Range and the prominent Signal Peak. This area in Grant County serves as a critical corridor for the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail, which winds through varied terrain including Tadpole Ridge and Scott Peak.

Evidence of the region's historical timber and hauling economy is preserved in the network of legacy routes such as Sawmill Wagon Rd and Woodhaul Wagon Rd. Water sources, essential for both early industry and modern forestry, are identified at McMillan Spring, Allie Spring, and the Slack Sawmill Tank. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns of Cherry Cr and Little Cherry Cr, illustrating the complex drainage systems that carve through canyons like West Skates Canyon and Deadman Canyon.
