About this map

Fredonia and the Kaibab Indian Reservation anchor this mid-1980s landscape at the edge of the Arizona Strip. The map illustrates a high-desert environment defined by dramatic elevation changes, moving from the Moccasin Mountains and the Vermilion Cliffs down toward the northern reaches of Grand Canyon National Park. Historically significant sites like Pipe Spring National Monument appear alongside small settlements like Moccasin and Colorado City.

The presence of the Grand Canyon National Game Preserve and the Kaibab National Forest highlights the managed nature of these public lands. Landforms such as Yellowstone Mesa and Buckskin Mountain dominate the terrain, while numerous seasonal drainages like Bulrush Wash and Sunshine Wash cut through the arid flats. This survey documents the intersection of state highways, tribal lands, and federal monuments before the expansion of modern infrastructure in the region.
