About this map

Ventana stands as a focal point in this 2014 survey of Pima County, positioned near the crossroads of Bia-23 in an area defined by dramatic desert elevations. The landscape is dominated by the Cimarron Mountains to the northeast and the Castle Mountains to the southwest, creating a natural corridor through the Chui Tontk Valley.

Hydrological patterns are traced by the seasonal San Simon Wash and Anegam Wash, which navigate the intervals between peaks like Cave Mtn and the Black Hills. This map documents the essential connection points of the high desert, including Ventana Pass and Montazona Pass, which provide passage through the steep terrain. The arrangement of Bureau of Indian Affairs routes like Bia-34 and Bia-40 highlights the modern transportation network serving this specific region of the Tohono O'odham Nation.
