2021 Map of McLellan Reservoir

About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Coconino and Yavapai counties, where the infrastructure of the old west meets modern transport. The map highlights a critical network of water management features, including McLellan Reservoir and dozens of earthen tanks such as Welch Tank and Big Supai Tank, essential for sustaining life and livestock in this arid environment. The northern section of the sheet preserves a segment of historic Americana with the Frontage Rd (Old Rte 66) running parallel to the modern interstate and the railway at McLellan Siding Tank. Geologic landmarks define the horizon, from the volcanic Johnson Crater in the northwest to the prominent Sawtooth Peak and the deep relief of Devil Dog Canyon further south. The small settlement of Sereno and nearby Sereno Spring mark one of the few named habitation points amidst a terrain characterized by named knolls and draws.
