1962 Map of Coconino Point

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Little Colorado River carves a striking path through this high desert region, defining the transition between the Painted Desert to the northeast and the Coconino Plateau to the southwest. This 1962 survey, produced in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, documents a landscape where traditional indigenous lands of the Navajo Indian Reservation meet the Kaibab National Forest. Notable for its physical geography, the map details the dramatic Coconino Gorge and landmarks like Coconino Point and Saddle Horn Rock. Cultural evidence is marked by ancient Petroglyphs and isolated modern outposts like Willows Camp and Needmore. The region's reliance on water management is evident through the naming of numerous stock tanks such as Muggs Castle Tank and Rough House Tank, and the presence of a Gaging Station and Cable Crossing along the river.
