2021 Map of Long Valley

About this map

Coconino National Forest defines the character of this high-elevation landscape, where the Mogollon Plateau begins its descent through a complex system of draws and ridges. The small settlement at Clints Well serves as a central point of human activity, situated near the intersection of various forest roads. The area is marked by a high density of water tanks, such as Snafu Tank and Pecks Point Tank Number Two, indicating the vital importance of water management for local ranching or wildlife within the arid timberlands. Natural drainage patterns are dominated by deep cuts like Yellow Jacket Draw and Iron Mine Draw, which channel seasonal runoff through the ponderosa-covered terrain. To the south, Dirtyneck Canyon and Miller Canyon show the increasing relief of the plateau edge, while the presence of McClure Lake provides one of the few larger bodies of water in this high-country environment.
