About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates the high-desert landscape of this Coconino County region, where water management is the primary marker of human presence. The small settlement of Valle sits at the southwestern edge, while the remainder of the territory is defined by an intricate network of livestock and storage tanks. These features, such as Harbison Tank, Red Horse Tank, and the curiously named Old Automobile Tank, illustrate the critical importance of water catchment in this arid environment.

The presence of Corbitt Dam and various storage sites like Transplant Water Storage Tank further emphasizes the engineered nature of the local hydrology. Modern recreation and legacy travel routes intersect here, most notably the Arizona National Scenic Trail which winds near Russell Wash. From the heights of Wing Mtn to the eponymous tank, this 2014 survey captures a moment of modern ranching and conservation infrastructure in northern Arizona.
