2011 Map of Ashurst Lake

About this map

Anderson Mesa dominates this high-altitude landscape south of Flagstaff, where a network of water catchment systems and natural depressions defines the local geography. Significant bodies of water such as Upper Lake Mary, Ashurst Lake, and Potato Lake are central landmarks, supported by dozens of named tanks including Mormon Canyon Tank One, Deep Lake Tank, and Railroad Tank. The prevalence of these features, alongside Youngs Spring and Elk Spring, suggests a landscape carefully managed for livestock or wildlife in a seasonally arid environment.
