About this map

San Carlos Indian Reservation land dominates this high-altitude landscape in Graham County, where the terrain is carved by complex drainages and remote canyons. The upper reaches of Eagle Creek and the winding Cienega Creek network serve as the primary hydrologic features, supported by isolated water sources like Cottonwood Spring and Fourmile Tank. Evidence of range management and historical land use is visible through the presence of a Corral and several strategically placed stock tanks such as Night Trap Tank and Burro Tank.

A Gaging Station on Willow Creek indicates the importance of monitoring water flow in this arid environment. Significant topographical landmarks like Fourmile Mesa and the aptly named Windy Bob Canyon define the area's physical character. Movement through this section of the reservation is limited to a primitive Jeep Trail, highlighting the area's secluded nature during the mid-to-late 20th century.
