2012 Map of Hobble Tank

About this map

Winter Camp and Hardy Winter Camp sit within a high-desert landscape defined by a critical network of water catchment systems. In this arid reach of Coconino County, the placement of features like Hobble Tank, Big Hole Tank, and Little Hocter Tank reveals the essential infrastructure required for ranching and survival in the Arizona backcountry. The terrain is marked by prominent landforms such as White Hill and the Hobble Mountains, with drainage provided by the seasonal courses of Miller Wash and Spring Valley Wash. A dense residential street grid in the northwestern corner, featuring names like Waddell Rd and Palmdale Rd, contrasts sharply with the open range and numerous isolated tanks like Lonesome Knob Tank and Chaparral Tank that dominate the rest of the quadrangle.
