2018 Map of Dry Lake NW

About this map

Dry Lake dominates the southeastern quadrant of this Navajo County landscape, serving as a primary focal point for a region defined by its complex network of water management features and canyon systems. The arid terrain is marked by numerous named catchment basins and wells that support local land use, including Bell Cow Tank, Eskimo Tank, and the specialized Big Oil Well Tank. These features are connected by seasonal drainages such as Willow Patch Draw and Porter Tank Draw, which channel runoff through the high desert floor. To the south, Duck Lake Rd provides the principal overland access across the township lines. The topography is defined by significant landmarks like the Pink Cliffs and the rugged cuts of Bell Cow Canyon and Lost Tank Canyon, illustrating the varied geologic character of this part of northern Arizona.
