1968 Map of Anderson Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Anderson Canyon and its complex network of seasonal drainages define this high-desert ranching landscape in Coconino County. The map reveals the critical importance of water management in the late 1960s, evidenced by a high density of named water catchments and infrastructure such as Gorton Dam, Anderson Well, and Courthouse Well. These features, alongside numerous stock tanks like Babbitt Tank, Boyd Reid Tank, and the Charlebois Tanks, trace the patterns of land use and livestock movement through the central Arizona plateau. The topography is further etched by significant natural landmarks including Yellow Jacket Canyon and Wagon Box Draw. The presence of Big Anderson Tank and several family-named features suggests a landscape deeply tied to regional ranching history and early 20th-century land claims.
