1970 Map of Chevelon Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Chevelon Butte dominates the high plateau landscape of this northern Arizona survey, crowned by a lookout Tower and surrounded by the Sitgreaves National Forest. The map captures a high-altitude wilderness where water management is the primary sign of human activity, defined by a network of cattle tanks and remote wells. Features such as Babbitt Tank, Mormon Tank, and Little Mormon Tank suggest the ranching heritage and movement of early settlers through this arid terrain. Deep incisions like Pablo Canyon and Chevelon Canyon cut through the forest floor, while seasonal drainages like Sand Draw and Tillman Draw provide the primary geographical structure. The presence of Garlic Well and the Big Windmill highlights the vital infrastructure required to sustain life and livestock in the Coconino backcountry before the modern era of expansion.
