1989 Map of Ebert Mountain

About this map

Ebert Mountain and the high volcanic peaks of the Coconino Plateau define this landscape during the late 1980s. This region, split between the Kaibab National Forest and Coconino National Forest, is characterized by significant topographic relief and an elaborate network of water catchment systems essential for ranching and wildlife. Prominent volcanic features like Double Top, Butcherknife Hill, and the eastern slopes of Red Mountain rise above the drainage of Miller Wash. The map documents numerous named livestock tanks such as Dent and Sayer Tank and Butcherknife Tank, which underscore the human adaptation to this arid high-elevation terrain. Industrial footprints are visible at the Cinder Pit, reflecting the area's geological history and utility, while utility corridors like the Trans Lines Pipeline cut through the forest sections.
