List of AZT cache boxes

Post by garyc57 »

All,

Is there a publicly-available list of the AZT water cache boxes? You know, those brown, metal, latched boxes, usually near accessible locations?

Thanks,
Gary

I know of these:

Sahuarita TH
Oracle State Park north boundary, just south of the underpass
Tiger Mine TH, a few steps north of the parking lot
Freeman Road TH
Florence Kelvin Highway TH
FR 4, South of Superior, Not readily accessible with stock vehicles
Pine TH, a few hundred yards trail-south, through the steel gate, turn right, near the fence
Hay Meadow TH (Highway 87, near Mogollon Rim Ranger Station)
Cedar Ranch TH
Kelly Tank (north of FR 514)
Murrays Lake /FR 205 TH

Update: the box at FR 4, not readily available with stock vehicles,
has been moved to just north of Picketpost TH, not visible from the road but I'm told it's there.

@Sredfield
I assume the box at FR4 isn't needed anymore since the install of the new rainwater collector in that area? Any idea how well the collector has been performing, especially this year?

So far, so good. FS required we get the water tested every so often for a while and that has been done. I don't know how to check the water quantity, some rain would be nice soon.

And FS 4 went through private land, besides being a real bear to navigate. The owner shut it off to pubic use and the FS hasn't gotten the realignment built yet.
