Big Springs serves as a focal point in this high-elevation landscape within the Kaibab National Forest, where water sources dictate the patterns of human presence. The small settlement and the nearby Mangum Camp are supported by a network of critical water points like Morning Dove Spring, Mangum Springs, and Riggs Spring. This 2012 topography shows a deeply incised terrain defined by prominent points and complex canyon systems, including the notable three-way drainage of North Fork Castle Canyon, South Fork Castle Canyon, and the main Castle Canyon.
