About this map

The North Fork White River serves as the central artery for this remote portion of Navajo County, carving through a landscape defined by deep canyons and high flats. The Alchesay National Fish Hatchery stands as a significant point of human intervention along the river, supported by several recreation areas including the Alchesay Springs Campground and Diamond Creek Junction Campground.

Settlement patterns are dispersed and often tied to ranching and local operations, represented by Roberts Ranch, Baha Ranch, and Post Office Farms. Topographical features such as Black Canyon, Goklish Canyon, and the prominence of Little Round Top Mountain highlight the dramatic vertical relief of the region. Dozens of small water sources like Baha Spring, Cedar Spring, and numerous catchment tanks such as Salt Trap Tank are documented, revealing the critical importance of water management in this arid high-country environment.
