2014 Map of Humphreys Peak

About this map

Fort Valley serves as the primary settlement hub at the base of the volcanic San Francisco Peaks within the Coconino National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the high-altitude volcanic massif, including Humphreys Peak, Agassiz Peak, and Fremont Peak, which form a dramatic cirque around the Interior Valley. This survey captures the complex drainage and water collection patterns of the area, featuring numerous named water sources such as Leroux Spring, Beard Spring, and Bismarck Lake that were historically vital for livestock and early ranching. The Arizona National Scenic Trail winds through the varied terrain, connecting Hart Prairie to the slopes of San Francisco Mtn. Lower elevations like Freidlein Prairie contrast with the rugged peaks and canyons, illustrating the transition from open meadow to high-alpine environments near Dry Lake Hills.
