2011 Map of Dead Monkey Ridge

About this map

Cooper Mine Trading Post stands as a focal point in the southern portion of this landscape, situated near the intersection of several tribal transit corridors. The area is defined by massive topographic features including the expansive Red Mesa in the northwest and the namesake Dead Monkey Ridge at the center of the quadrangle. A network of roads, including Indian Rte 20 and Indian Rte 201, provides access through this Coconino County terrain, tracing the paths between significant landforms like Circular White Ridge. The distribution of Forest Service RD routes across the north and east suggests a landscape managed for conservation and land use, where the high desert plateaus meet structured forestry access points.
