2018 Map of Hancock Knolls

About this map

Grand Canyon National Park extends its northern boundary into this high-desert landscape of Mohave County, where the southern portion of the sheet reveals the dramatic elevation drops of Tuckup Canyon. This 2018 survey captures a remote section of the Kanab Plateau, defined by isolated water sources like School Section Tank and White Tank, which are critical infrastructure in an otherwise arid environment. The terrain is marked by distinctive geological formations, most notably Hancock Knoll and the larger Hancock Knolls cluster. To the west and east, the drainage systems of Brady Hollow and Little Robinson Canyon cut through the plateau, illustrating the complex erosion patterns that characterize this region of the Arizona Strip. The map provides a detailed view of the section lines and township boundaries that organize this largely undeveloped public land.
