About this map

Tunnel Canyon and Driftwood Canyon carve through this high-plateau landscape of Coconino County, reflecting the critical importance of water management in an arid environment. The map highlights a series of catchments such as Twin Tanks, Kaufman Tanks, and New Tank, which are essential features for supporting movement through these drainages. To the south, Miners Spring provides a rare natural water source in the canyon system.

Transportation through the region is defined by the Hualapai Hilltop Hwy and the winding Supai Rd, routes that navigate the complex topography near Hualapai Canyon. These roads, along with the primitive Camp 5 Rd, trace the paths between the deep incisions of Disquiba Canyon and the surrounding tablelands. This 2021 study documents the contemporary configuration of ranching infrastructure and access routes on the Hualapai Reservation.
