2018 Map of Howard Lake

About this map

Valle sits as a central junction in this high-desert landscape of northern Arizona, where the residential street grids of Crystal Vw and various avenues like Apollo Ave and Bonnie Brae contrast with the surrounding arid terrain. The area is defined by its extensive system of seasonal water catchments, including Twentyfour Tank, Railroad Tank, and Mud Tank, which supported the region's livestock interests. Drainage patterns are dominated by Spring Valley Wash and Red Lake Wash, which cut through the land toward Howard Lake in the south. To the west, the Four Hills provide a notable elevation change, while smaller settlements like Quivero are situated along the transit corridors. The map records a transition from traditional ranching landmarks, such as Mule Tank and Cow Tank, to more modern residential developments that have begun to fill in the township and range sections.
