About this map

Espee Camp serves as a lone human outpost in this high desert landscape of Coconino County, defined by a sophisticated network of water management features essential for ranching and survival. The terrain is marked by numerous named catchments and reservoirs, such as Watson Lake, Horse Lake, and the uniquely named C Lake, which illustrate the critical importance of water rights and livestock grazing in the late twentieth century. Natural drainage is centered on the winding Monument Wash, while Howard Spring provides a rare permanent water source amidst the arid topography. This 1981 survey documents a remote ranching infrastructure through various specialized tanks, including the V L Bar Tank, Duff Brown Tank, and Freeman Tank, each positioned to support movement across this isolated stretch of the Arizona plateau.
