2014 Map of Crookton

About this map

Crookton occupies a central position on this high-desert landscape where the boundary between Coconino and Yavapai Counties intersects the drainage of Pineveta Wash. The terrain is defined by dramatic erosional features, most notably McIntyre Canyon and Tom Lockett Draw, which create a complex network of ridges and depressions. This 2014 survey documents a transition from established cattle ranching, evidenced by Cattle Drive and various water tanks like Garrett Tank, to a more modern residential or recreational footprint. The naming of recent paths such as Journeys End, Desperado Trail, and Bunny View Trail suggests a evolving relationship with the land, while older routes like Crookton Road follow the natural contours of the northern Arizona plateau.
