About this map

Two Bar Ranch and Black Brush Ranch anchor the northern reaches of this high-desert landscape in central Arizona. This region is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and springs that supported cattle operations throughout the twentieth century. The topography is dominated by the massive profile of Two Bar Mountain and Granite Mountain, separated by the distinctive Gunsight Gap.

Canyon systems such as Tule Canyon and Wildcat Canyon provide natural corridors through the terrain, while numerous water sources like Monkey Spring and Hackberry Spring reflect the essential infrastructure of ranching life. Historic family-named properties, including Cross P Ranch and the Horrell Ranch, suggest a long-standing human presence among the more forbidding landmarks like Nonesuch Rocks and the passage at Reavis Gap.
