Where are dogs prohibited in the Catalinas?

A few weeks ago a question about where dogs are not allowed in the Catalinas prompted me to research this topic. The only Forest Service link I could on this topic was this one:


http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/coronado/recarea/?recid=25692

Where it says that "Dogs are prohibited, except seeing-eye dogs or handi-dogs in the Bighorn Sheep Management Area portion of the Pusch Ridge Wilderness."

So I went to look for a map or definition of the boundaries of the "Bighorn Sheep Management Area portion of the Pusch Ridge Wilderness." The only thing I could find was this:

Update 2011-06-12: I managed to find a PDF of the actual closure order online (not sure how long it will stay there):

The closure order contains a map which seems to track the map given above.
