2021 Map of Meteor Crater

About this map

Meteor Crater dominates the southeastern quadrant of this Coconino County landscape, providing a striking topographic view of the world-famous impact site. The terrain is defined by deep incisions such as Canyon Diablo, Anderson Canyon, and Yaeger Canyon, which cut through the high desert plateau. Historical transportation routes are a focal point, with the alignment of Old Sixtysix and the modern interstate running parallel across the northern section. Small roadside settlements and locales like Two Guns, Rimmy Jims, and Sunshine represent the sparse human footprint in this arid region. The map details a network of water management features essential for ranching and survival, including Horse Pasture Tank, Chilson Tank, and the seasonally variable Corner Lake.
