2021 Map of Dog Point

About this map

The Kaibab National Forest dominates this section of the high North Rim country, where complex drainages like Tater Canyon and Dog Canyon carve through the Kaibab Plateau. This 2021 survey shows a landscape defined by its vital water sources, from man-made improvements like Mackelprang Tank and Dog Canyon Tank to natural seeps such as Crystal Spring and North Canyon Spring. A network of long-distance routes, including the Arizona National Scenic Trl and the Great Western Trl, traverses the terrain, connecting high points like Dog Point and Tater Ridge. Geologic features are prominent throughout, notably the Marble Sinkhole and the distinctive ridgelines of the Cocks Combs. The mapping reflects a region managed for conservation and recreation, where the names often echo the ranching and pioneer history of the Arizona Strip.
