About this map

Prescott National Forest covers a significant portion of this landscape, defining a network of high-elevation peaks and canyon systems. The namesake Juniper Mountains dominate the northern terrain, where prominent landmarks like Gobbler Knob and the flat-topped Juniper Mesa rise above the surrounding drainages. This high-desert environment relies on scattered water sources, documented here through numerous tanks and springs such as Thirtythree Tank and Government Spring.

Transportation throughout the region is primarily composed of historic trails and unimproved roads, including the Oaks And Willows Trl and Military Trl. These routes follow the natural contours of the land, navigating around Table Top Mtn and the southern Santa Maria Mountains. The mapping of these ephemeral water sources and traditional cattle tanks reflects the area's continued use for livestock grazing and wilderness management in the early twenty-first century.
