About this map

The Gila River winds through the heart of this Arizona landscape, defining the topography between York Valley and the surrounding high ground. In the early 21st century, the settlement of York serves as a local focal point near the river's bend, while Three Way marks a critical road junction to the north. The area's aviation and ranching heritage is evident through the presence of the Greenlee County Airport and family-named landmarks like Davis Ranch and Fulcher Ranch.

Canyons and mesas dominate the eastern and western horizons, from Tollhouse Canyon to the heights of Wire Corral Mesa and Democrat Mesa. The drainage network is dense, with numerous seasonal watercourses such as Willow Creek, Greaser Wash, and Apache Creek carving through the arid terrain. Remote points like Lop Ear Spring and Gus Spring highlight the essential nature of water sources in this high-desert environment.
