2012 Map of Findlay Tank

About this map

Kanab Cr carves through this high-desert landscape in Mohave County, where water management is the primary evidence of human activity. The map highlights crucial water sources for ranching and local wildlife, including Meeks Reservoir and the eponymous Findlay Tank. These catchment systems are linked by primitive tracks and the more substantial Mount Trumbull Rd, which provides access to the higher elevations of Burnt Canyon Point. The topography is defined by significant drainages like Water Canyon, illustrating the importance of natural runoff in an area where permanent settlements are absent and the economy depends on managing scarce desert resources across the Arizona Strip.
