2014 Map of Dog Point

About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Coconino County, where the plateau is deeply incised by a network of drainage systems. The Arizona National Scenic Trail winds through the western portion of the terrain, passing landmarks such as Dog Lake and the water source at Crystal Spring. This area is characterized by dramatic geological formations, including the Cocks Combs and the Marble Sinkhole, highlighting the unique karst and erosional features of the Arizona uplands. Water management in this arid environment is evident through several named catchments like Mackelprang Tank and Dog Canyon Tank, which support the local ecosystem. High ridges such as Cane Ridge and Tater Ridge overlook deep incisions like Wildcat Canyon and Fence Canyon, providing a detailed look at the topographic complexity of the Dog Point vicinity during the early twenty-first century.
