| dc.description | The Boulder Mountain quadrangle is centered on the northwest side of the southern Mazatzal Mountains. It includes the area from the ridge-line westward to State Route 87 and the area between the Ballentine trailhead on the south and the small hamlet of Sunflower on the north (see figure 1). The elevation ranges from 2200 feet along Sycamore Creek to over 6200 feet at Pine Mountain. The western parts of the region below about 4000 feet are within the Sonoran Desert and contain saguaro cactus, palo verde, and Sonoran desert vegetation. The highest, north-facing peaks of the Mazatzal Mountains--including Pine Mountain, Little Pine Flat, and Edwards Park-contain conifer and oak forests. But most of the area above 4000 feet is covered with an impenetrable blanket of dense chaparral vegetation. The thick brush combined with the precipitous boulders and deep crags make access to most of the eastern half of the quadrangle extremely difficult. The pipeline trail and the Ballentine Trail were deeply rutted and overgrown. | en_US |
