About this map

The dramatic escarpment of the Vermilion Cliffs dominates this 1950s survey, marking a stark geological boundary between the high Paria Plateau and the lower basin to the west. This mid-century landscape is defined by the logistics of ranching and early motor travel, evidenced by the Old Arizona Road and the specialized Winter Road navigating the contours of the plateau. Within the boundaries of the Grand Canyon National Game Preserve and Kaibab National Forest, water management is the primary marker of human activity. Rare water sources like Coyote Spring and a designated Stock Pond along Coyote Wash illustrate the critical infrastructure required for livestock in this arid environment before modern development reached the more remote corners of Coconino County.
