2018 Map of Davenport Hill

About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this northern Arizona landscape, where the high desert terrain transitions into the forested uplands near Williams. The settlement patterns here are defined by early ranching and homesteading, evidenced by family-named water sources like Pouquette Homestead Tank and Moose Ranch Tank. Transportation history is layered across the quadrangle, from the established routes of Chalender and Sherwood Forest Estates to the protected corridors of the Overland Road Historic Trail and the Great Western Trail. Notable topographic features like Davenport Hill and the Sycamore Rim provide dramatic elevation changes, while flatlands such as Garland Prairie and Pitman Valley offer a record of the area's grazing history. The presence of numerous tanks and springs, including Ross Spring and Isham Spring, highlights the critical importance of water management in this arid timberland.
