About this map

The boundary between the Grand Canyon National Game Preserve and the Grand Canyon National Park bisects this high desert landscape, capturing a remote region defined by water management and topography in the late twentieth century. Ranching and land-use patterns are evident through the network of specialized water sources such as Big Jackson Tank, Merle Findlay Tank, and Nininger Tank. These man-made improvements, alongside the Hitson Tank Corral, suggest the ongoing importance of livestock grazing even as the land transitions into federally protected conservation areas.
