About this map

Clay Springs and Pinedale serve as the primary hubs of this high-elevation landscape, situated atop the dramatic Mogollon Plateau. The map detail reveals a high-country network of water resources essential for life in this arid environment, ranging from Indian Spring and Red Rock Spring to numerous stock tanks like Sacket Tank and Doe Tank. The town of Clay Springs is particularly well-defined, showing a grid of local roads including Morning Glory St, Gardenia St, and Hollyhock St.

Logging and ranching history are evident through the naming of features such as Loggers Tank and Nicks Camp Canyon. The terrain is carved by numerous drainages including Stinson Wash and Cottonwood Wash, which cut through a complex system of named points and ridges within the Sitgreaves National Forest. The historic General Crook trail remains a visible landmark, providing a direct link to the region's 19th-century military and transit history.
