2021 Map of Cross Mountain

About this map

Cross Mtn and the sweeping expanse of the Seventyfour Plains define this Yavapai County landscape, where modern road names often hint at the backcountry character of the high desert. This 2021 survey illustrates a region where water management remains the primary evidence of land use, marked by numerous livestock tanks named for local figures such as Shorty Davis Tank, Jack Webb Tank, and Hoggy John Tank. These scattered water sources are critical features in an arid environment drained by Trout Cr and the deep contours of Dividing Canyon. The map reveals a network of rural routes and descriptive trails, including Broken Shovel Trl, Walkabout Trl, and Young Trail Rd, which navigate the township lines of T21N and T22N.
