    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.

Harvest St. Mesa, AZ 85203 Mesa, AZ 85203 [email protected] [email protected] To: Team Captains, Special Program Managers and Advisors, and Team Coaches Greetings Varsity Scouts and Scout Leaders! You are about to participate in Varsity Scouting's most elevating activity for the year 2008. If you have planned right, you are about to have a mountain top experience that you will remember forever. It will help to culminate the last years’ worth of Team activities and will guide you and your Team through the upcoming year. I commend you for your choice to participate in Operation On Target this year. There are over 70 Teams participating in this year's activity. This is the biggest year ever for Arizona On Target! Team will be on Arizona peaks from Hayden Peak in the northwest to Mount Graham in the southeast. That will cover most of the state! Every Team should have ample opportunity to send and receive signals from several peaks. Please make every effort to be at your appointed location and be ready to go at 9:00 am. For some of you, that means a hike beginning at daybreak! Last year we had some Teams trying to make contact with Teams that had left early, so plan to stay until noon. Don’t forget to finish up with a “reflection”.

HilL and David A. Modeling Report No. 6 Hydrology Division - Groundwater Modeling April 1, 1 Abstract The Phoenix Active :Management Area groundwater flow model focuses on the hydrologic system of the Salt River Valley, the most intensive water use area of the state. The goal of the hydrologic study and modeling effort was to develop a quantitative tool to test various groundwater management scenarios. The predevelopment hydrologic system (circa 1900) of the Salt River Valley is analyzed. Various components of groundwater inflow and outflov,/ are identified. A predevelopment groundviater budget is presented. The total inflows and outflows were in approximate balance and equaled approximately 139J~OO acre-feet per year. The modern hydrologic system (1978-198:-1) is analyzed. The vari.ous components of groundv,:rner inflow and outflov<' are identified. Detailed descriptions of the methodologies used to analyze the components of flow are provided. A groundwater budget for the period 19/X-1 Y88 is presented. The total inflows were approximately 13.5 million acre-feet and the total outflow-, were approximately 14.0 million acre-feet The estimated decrease in the volume of groundwater in storage \\'US 0.5 rnillion acre-feet Various recommendations are provided to improve future data collection and analysis efforts.
