2018 Map of Blue Moon Reservoir

About this map

Blue Moon Reservoir and its surrounding water catchments anchor this high desert landscape within Coconino County. The area is defined by a series of engineered water features, including Big Reservoir, Horse Reservoir, and Curve Reservoir, which suggest a critical reliance on seasonal runoff managed through drainage systems like Tatahatso Wash and Bekihatso Wash. The terrain is punctuated by distinctive landforms such as the Yon Dot Mountains in the southeast and Tooth Rock in the north, while the Blue Moon Bench provides a topographical overlook of the namesake reservoir. Infrastructure is limited to remote corridors like Indian Rte 6120, reflecting the isolation of this corner of the state during the early twenty-first century.
