2018 Map of McLellan Reservoir

About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Northern Arizona, where the terrain is marked by significant cinder cones and volcanic features like Johnson Crater. The map reveals a sophisticated water management network essential for ranching and the railroad, featuring dozens of named "tanks" such as McLellan Siding Tank and Jesus Tank. Transportation history is layered across the topography, with an Old R.R. Grade and segments of Old Rte. "66" paralleling the modern infrastructure. The crossing of the Coconino Co Yavapai Co line provides a specific point of reference for local historians. Dramatic landforms like Flat Mesa and the deep incisions of Devil Dog Canyon define the drainage patterns that flow through Johnson Canyon toward the McLellan Reservoir.
