2012 Map of Howard Hill

About this map

Willaha and the surrounding high desert of Coconino County are defined by a network of seasonal water catchments and drainage ways in this 2012 survey. The landscape is dominated by ephemeral features like Coconino Wash and Rain Tank Wash, which demonstrate the critical importance of water management in this arid region. Named infrastructure for livestock or local transit, such as Dust Bowl Tank, Buck Tank, and West Pasture Tank, are scattered across the terrain, connected by the Willaha Co Rd and various forest routes. To the north, the small settlement of Woodin sits near Jackson Tank, while the prominent rise of Howard Hill serves as a central landmark. This map illustrates the intersection of ranching history and modern geographic naming, where every depression and pond, like Red Dike Pond, is precisely documented for navigation and land use.
