1989 Map of Dog Knobs

About this map

Kai Bab National Forest dominates the northern boundary of this high-country survey, where the terrain shifts from timbered slopes to the wide opening of Antelope Flat. The landscape is defined by its water-scarcity management, evidenced by the numerous catchment points scattered across the Coconino plateau. These include colorfully named features like Suicide Tank, Tarantula Tank, and Johnny Tank, which supported livestock and wildlife in this arid environment long before modern infrastructure reached the interior.
