+ About this map
Humphreys Peak stands at 12,637 feet, the highest point in Arizona and the crown of the San Francisco Peaks, the eroded remnants of a stratovolcano that once may have exceeded 16,000 feet. The surrounding volcanic field remains young; its most recent eruption, at nearby Sunset Crater, came roughly a thousand years ago. The landscape carries cinder cones, lava flows, and the dramatic Inner Basin, a deep bowl carved into the mountain’s core.
This map reveals the radial symmetry of the old volcano. The contour lines fan outward from the summit ridge in concentric arcs, tightening where glacial cirques bite into the northeast face. The Inner Basin opens as a wide depression surrounded by the converging ridgelines of Humphreys, Agassiz, and Fremont peaks: a topographic signature of volcanic collapse and glacial erosion working in concert.
