2011 Map of Joseph City

About this map

Joseph City serves as the central hub of this high desert landscape, positioned along the northern bank of the Little Colorado River. The map highlights a complex infrastructure of water and industry, characterized by the Cholla Lake reservoir and specialized industrial features like the Cholla Bottom Ash Pond and Cholla Fly Ash Pond to the east. Transportation history is deeply etched into the terrain, with Old Hwy 66 and Cliff Edge paralleling the modern interstate corridor. To the south and east, the landscape transitions into a series of named drainages, including Randall Draw and Marshall Draw, which cut through the arid plains toward the river. Smaller ranching or water management sites like Hashknife Tank and the settlement of Penzance provide specific points of interest for those studying the rural layout of Navajo County.
