About this map

Faught Ridge stretches through this portion of Navajo County, anchoring a landscape defined by an extensive network of ephemeral drainages and livestock-watering infrastructure. In this 2018 survey, the area within the White Mountains is marked by a series of named "tanks" such as Heavy Burn Tank, Log Road Tank, and Salt Tank, reflecting the essential water management required for ranching and resource use in the high country.

The rugged terrain is dissected by numerous deep cuts, including Beaver Canyon, Cedar Canyon, and the three distinct hollows — First Hollow, Third Hollow, and Fourth Hollow — that lead toward Big Canyon. Historically significant water sources like Salt Trap Spring and Bear Playground Spring dot the landscape, providing critical points for tracking local geography and land use between Corduroy Cr and the heights of Lake Ridge.
