1954 Map of Emmett Wash NW

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Anderson Ranch and Bean Hole Ranch sit at the center of this cattle country landscape during the mid-1950s. The topography is dominated by the dramatic descent from the high Paria Plateau down through the Cliffs into the broad expanse of House Rock Valley. Sparse but vital water sources are mapped in detail, including Jacobs Pools and a solitary Windmill near the southern bend of House Rock Wash. To the northwest, the isolated Sandhill Shack provides a rare point of human habitation in a region defined by its extreme elevation changes. In the southwest corner, the map reveals the deep incisions of Seegmiller Canyon, illustrating the erosive forces that shaped this Coconino County terrain. The survey captures the specialized infrastructure of desert ranching before the expansion of modern highway networks in northern Arizona.
