1968 Map of Elliott Canyon

About this map

Coconino National Forest defines this high desert landscape, where a sophisticated network of water catchment systems supported ranching and resource management in the late 1960s. The map reveals dozens of named tanks and springs, such as Billy Back Spring, Yellow Jacket Spring, and Elliott Spring, which provided essential water in a terrain carved by deep drainages like Mormon Canyon and Padre Canyon. Toward the southern edge, the plateau rises into Anderson Mesa, bordering the shores of Indian Lake and the elongated basin of Long Lake. This survey is particularly useful for identifying early 20th-century land use, showing several sites marked as Ruins and numerous Drill Hole locations, alongside the historic Elliott Trail winding through the canyons.
