2018 Map of Juniper Mountains

About this map

Prescott National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape in Yavapai County, where deep canyons and high mesas define the regional geography. The map illustrates a complex network of water sources essential for life in the Arizona backcountry, from the Apache Creek Seep and Little Old Spring to various stock tanks like Section Thirtythree Tank and Pot Hole Tank. These features suggest a landscape managed for both timber and grazing. Named landmarks such as George Wood Canyon and Gobbler Knob provide specific points of reference for those tracking land use and family history in the area. The terrain transitions from the heights of Dairy Mtn and Bear Mtn down toward the drainages of N Fork Walnut Cr and Turkey Cr. Forest roads like Happy Camp and Oaks And Willows trace the old routes used for access through the Juniper Mountains.
