1988 Map of Le Fevre Ridge

About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this high-plateau landscape in northern Arizona, where the terrain is defined by the steep-walled Wildcat Canyon and the prominent Le Fevre Ridge. The map highlights the extensive boundaries of the Grand Canyon National Game Preserve, demonstrating the 1980s-era management of this protected wilderness area. Surveying precision is noted by the passage of the Gila and Salt River Meridian, which bisects the western half of the quadrangle. Occasional water sources like Hidden Lake and distinct topographical depressions such as Cutler Pockets provide essential landmarks in an otherwise dry environment. The presence of a Gravel Pit near the northern border and a network of primitive roads indicate the limited but necessary human footprint for forest maintenance and local resource extraction.
