2011 Map of Faught Ridge

About this map

Faught Ridge Lookout stands as a central landmark in this high-elevation landscape within Navajo County, monitoring the vast network of drainage basins and ridges during the early 21st century. The terrain is defined by a series of deep canyons and water-management features, including Corduroy Creek and its many tributaries like Middle Cedar Creek and West Cedar Creek. The map documents a ranching and conservation infrastructure represented by numerous tanks and springs, such as Salt Tank, Petrified Tank, and Bear Playground Spring. Settled life is sparse, centered primarily around West Ranch in the north. The presence of Dry Lake and the distinctively named Cattail Rush illustrate the variable hydrology of the Faught Ridge area, while the road network is led by Faught Ridge Rd and Indian Rte 39, which facilitate movement through the complex topography of Big Mountain and Lucy Canyon.
