2011 Map of Agathla Peak

About this map

Agathla Peak and the surrounding high desert terrain dominate this northern Arizona landscape, where the geology of the Colorado Plateau is prominently labeled. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a sparse road network, primarily following the path of Indian Rte 6460 and secondary routes that navigate between significant landmarks like Chaistla Butte and Porras Dikes. The drainage pattern is defined by El Capitan Wash, which cuts through the western portion of the quadrangle near Owl Rock. The map illustrates the geographical transition between the Segi Mesas and the expansive floor of Cane Valley, providing a clear record of the area's physical geography and isolated landmarks such as Lion Rock and the Gray Hills.
