The Black River carves a deep, meandering path through this high-country landscape, serving as the critical Reservation Boundary between the Fort Apache Indian Reservation and the San Carlos Indian Reservation. This map reveals a complex system of water management essential for ranching in the arid high desert, marked by numerous livestock tanks such as Carlos Moody Tank, Heifer Tank, and I D Tank No 2. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes from the Natanes Plateau and West Poker Mtn down into steep drainages like Mule Corral Canyon and Poker Canyon. Human presence is primarily represented by a network of unimproved routes, including the Burnt Corral Trail and various jeep trails, which navigate around landmarks like the deep basin of Hells Hole.
