About this map

Dead Monkey Ridge serves as a prominent landmark in this high-desert region of Coconino County, characterized by a complex network of dry washes and uplifted ridgelines. The landscape is primarily defined by the intersection of traditional routes and geological formations, with Copper Mine Rd cutting a north-south path through the central portion of the survey. The presence of Bureau of Indian Affairs routes, including Bia-201 and Bia-6211, underscores the importance of this area as a connected corridor for local transit between broader canyon systems.

Erosional features dominate the eastern and southern edges of the map, notably where Antelope Canyon and Circular White Ridge meet the flatlands. To the southeast, the Mormon Ridges provide a distinct contrast to the broader plains. This survey provides a clear look at the intersection of public land survey townships, including t38n r9e and t37n r9e, showing how the land is sectioned across this part of the Colorado Plateau.
