2014 Map of Bodaway Mesa

About this map

Bodaway Mesa rises prominently above the arid drainage systems of Coconino County, serving as a focal point for a landscape defined by significant topographic relief and seasonal water management. The terrain is characterized by named elevations such as the Yon Dot Mountains, Sheep Mtn, and the distinctive Red Point Hills. Navigating this high desert environment relies on a network of Bureau of Indian Affairs routes, including Bia-6130 and Bia-6137, which cross between the mesas and major erosional features like Tolchaco Gap. Water access, though sparse, is marked by several man-made improvements and natural catchment points including Pine Tree Reservoir, Cottonwood Tank, and Hole Reservoir. The drainage patterns of Hamblin Wash and Billy Goat Wash illustrate the complex runoff system that has sculpted the gaps and knolls across this region.
