About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this northern Arizona landscape, where the high-country plateau is deeply cut by drainage systems like Big Canyon and Isham Canyon. Settled outposts such as Pouquette Homestead, Rancho Viejo, and the Moose Ranch are scattered across the terrain, reflecting the area's history of ranching and early mountain habitation. Water management is a central theme of the map, evidenced by a dense network of catchment features including the Dogtown Reservoir, Scholz Lake, and numerous stock tanks like the Santa Fe Tank and Reeder Tank.

Topographical landmarks like Davenport Hill and Morgan Hill rise above the surrounding flats, while the southern edge of the survey transitions into the protected Sycamore Canyon Wilderness. Transportation routes are sparse, though historical points of interest like Bootlegger Crossing and the JD Cabin provide specific locations for genealogists and local historians to trace early 20th-century activity in this Coconino County region.
