Firstly, I would ask you whether you are certain of the spelling/pronounciation of "tesiclaro". Did the person who informed you inform you verbally (more prone to misinterpretation)or in writing (more prone to typos)?
The reason that could be important is because one of the main groups of Apache peoples is the Mescaleros - and, I could certainly see how you could hear "Tesiclaro" from that if the person informing you pronounced their "t's" similar to their "m's".
Otherwise, the closest clue is that there is a "Tesihim Butte" on the Navajo Nation here in Arizona. The Navajos are one of the most populous groups of Apachean peoples. I searched several Arizona books (and Google) for explanations of the name of the butte, and only found one author who used it as an example of a placename with no descriptive explanation. I also searched a couple of sites regarding the Apache's language to see if the "-him" part of Tesihim Butte might be some sort of suffix (-im in Hebrew is a masculine plural, for example), but came up dry(again).
I hope that you come back to clarify. If not, good luck to you!
