About this map

The North Fork White River carves a deep path through this section of Navajo County, creating a rugged landscape defined by high mesas and steep canyons. Significant agricultural and ranching operations are centered around Alchesay Flat and the Post Office Farms, where a network of water management features like Post Office Tank and Baha Tank support the local economy. The terrain is marked by prominent landmarks such as Little Round Top Mtn and the sheer walls of Bear Canyon.

Tracing the corridor along Indian Rte 67 and Indian Rte 61, the map reveals a pattern of isolated settlements and specialized facilities, including Miner Flat and North Fork to the north. Numerous natural springs and livestock tanks, from Gla She Spring to Bourke Tank, dot the landscape, illustrating the critical importance of water resources in this high-elevation environment. The southern portion of the map transitions into the drainage of Diamond Cr, where landmarks like Gold Butte rise above the canyon floors.
