About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this section of Coconino County, characterized by a complex network of canyons and high-desert terrain. The landscape is defined by massive natural forms such as Big Ridge and Seegmiller Point, while the hydrological pattern relies heavily on dispersed water sources. These range from natural outlets like Rock Spring to man-made cattle tanks such as Murray Tank, Three Lakes Tank, and Findley Tank, illustrating the essential infrastructure for ranching in this arid environment.

Transportation is anchored by the US Hwy 89 Alt Scenic, which winds through the northern reach near House Rock Canyon. The eastern expanse transitions into the broader House Rock Valley, where Buffalo Ranch Rd provides access to the lowlands. The intricate drainage systems of North Fork Rock Canyon and South Fork Rock Canyon carve through the southern portion of the map, revealing the erosional forces that have shaped this high-altitude wilderness.
