Geologic Map of the Phoenix Mountains, Central Arizona
Geologic Map of the Phoenix Mountains, Central Arizona Julia K. Johnson, Stephen J. Reynolds, and David A. Jones Arizona Geological Survey Contributed Map 04-A Tucson, AZ 2003 Introduction The Phoenix Mountains, located within the Phoenix metropolitan area of central Arizona, are a northwest-trending, uplifted fault block that extends for about 13 km (8 miles) from Moon Hill in the northwest to Camelback Mountain in the southeast (Fig. 1). The area includes a main range, with 420 m (1,378 ft) of local relief, as well as several isolated peaks. The geologic mapping for this study covers the main part of the range, including (from northwest to southeast) Moon Hill, Shaw Butte, North Mountain, Stoney Mountain, Dreamy Draw, Squaw Peak, and the informally named Quartzite Ridge. The main goals of this study were to document the bedrock geology, reconstruct the geologic history, and produce a 1:24,000 geologic map of the range. The area contains a remarkable stratigraphic sequence that records the formation of continental crust in the region as it evolved from an oceanic setting to a more continental setting. The rocks have been cleaved and steeply tilted, providing a well-exposed traverse through this exceptional sequence. The range also contains spectacular Proterozoic (Precambrian) structures, which document the extreme deformation that affected the crust soon after it had formed. Lookout Moon Mtn.

Geologic Influences on Apache Trout Habitat in the White Mountains of Arizona
GEOLOGIC INFLUENCES ON APACHE TROUT HABITAT IN THE WHITE MOUNTAINS OF ARIZONA JONATHAN W. LONG, ALVIN L. MEDINA, Rocky Mountain Research Station, U.S. Forest Service, 2500 S. Pine Knoll Dr, Flagstaff, AZ 86001; and AREGAI TECLE, Northern Arizona University, PO Box 15108, Flagstaff, AZ 86011 ABSTRACT Geologic variation has important influences on habitat quality for species of concern, but it can be difficult to evaluate due to subtle variations, complex terminology, and inadequate maps. To better understand habitat of the Apache trout (Onchorhynchus apache or O. gilae apache Miller), a threatened endemic species of the White Mountains of east- central Arizona, we reviewed existing geologic research to prepare composite geologic maps of the region at intermediate and fine scales. We projected these maps onto digital elevation models to visualize combinations of lithology and topog- raphy, or lithotopo types, in three-dimensions. Then we examined habitat studies of the Apache trout to evaluate how intermediate-scale geologic variation could influence habitat quality for the species. Analysis of data from six stream gages in the White Mountains indicates that base flows are sustained better in streams draining Mount Baldy. Felsic parent material and extensive epiclastic deposits account for greater abundance of gravels and boulders in Mount Baldy streams relative to those on adjacent mafic plateaus. Other important factors that are likely to differ between these lithotopo types include temperature, large woody debris, and water chemistry. Habitat analyses and conservation plans that do not account for geologic variation could mislead conservation efforts for the Apache trout by failing to recognize inherent differences in habitat quality and potential. -

Late Wisconsin Climate Inferences from Rock Glaciers in South-Central
LateWisconsin climatic inlerences from rock glaciers in south-centraland west-central New Mexico andeast-central Arizona byJohn W. Blagbrough, P0 Box8063, Albuquerque, NewMexico 87198 Abstract Inactive rock glaciersof late Wisconsin age occur at seven sites in south-central and west-central New Mexico and in east-centralArizona. They are at the base of steep talus in the heads of canyons and ravines and have surfacefeatures indicating they are ice-cemented (permafrost) forms that moved by the flow of interstitial ice. The rock glaciersindicate zones of alpine permafrost with lower levels that rise from approximately 2,400m in the east region to 2,950 m in the west. Within the zones the mean annual temperaturewas below freezing, and the climatewas marked by much diurnal freezing and thawing resulting in the production of large volumes of talus in favorableterrain. The snow cover was thin and of short duration, which fa- vored ground freezing and cryofraction. The rock glaciers in the east region occur near the late Wisconsin 0'C air isotherm and implv that the mean annual temperature was depressedapproximately 7 to 8'C during a periglacial episodein the late Wisconsin.A dry continental climate with a seasonaldistribution of precipitation similar to that of the present probably prevailed, and timberline former timberlines. may have been depresseda minimum of 1,240m. The rise in elevation of the rock glaciersfrom east to west acrossthe region is attributed to greater snowfall in west-centralNew Mexico and east-centralArizona, which reducedthe inten- sity and depth of ground freezing near the late Wisconsin 0"C air isotherm. -

From here the trail heads west and north for about 1.5 miles, eventually dropping into a two- track road and drainage. Follow the drainage north for about 100 feet until it turns left (west) via the rocky drainage and follow this rocky two-track for approximately 150 feet. At this point there is new signage installed leading north (uphill) to a saddle. This is a newly constructed trail which passes through the saddle and leads downhill across a rugged and lush hillside, eventually arriving at FR4. After crossing FR4, the trail continues west and turns north as you work your way toward Picketpost Mountain. The trail will continue north and eventually wraps around to the west side of Picketpost and somewhat paralleling Alamo Canyon drainage until reaching the Picketpost Trailhead. Hike 13.6 miles; trailhead elevations 3471 feet south and 2399 feet north; net elevation change 1371 feet; accumulated gains 1214 northward and 2707 feet southward; RTD __ miles (dirt). AZ Trail A Arizona Trail: Babbitt Ranch This passage begins just east of the Cedar Ranch area where FR 417 and FR (Passage 35) 9008A intersect. From here the route follows a pipeline road north to the Tub Ranch Camp. The route continues towards the corrals (east of the buildings).
