2014 Map of Lockwood Canyon

About this map

Kaibab National Forest defines the northern reaches of this high-altitude landscape, where the Arizona National Scenic Trail winds southward through open terrain and canyon breaks. The water management system of the early 21st century is evident in the numerous named tanks scattered across the quadrangle, which are critical for livestock and wildlife in this arid environment. Significant features include the Pearl Harbor Tank and Dent and Sayer Tank, along with the prominent volcanic landform of Mesa Butte in the southeast. Historical access routes like Grandview Rd and Old 301 Rd. cut across the high plateau, connecting the deeper topography of Lockwood Canyon and Rabbit Canyon. This survey captures the remote character of the Coconino County backcountry, highlighting the vital network of earthen tanks that sustain the region's ranching and natural heritage.
