About this map

Mount Floyd and Round Mtn dominate this high-elevation Coconino County landscape during the early 1970s. The region is defined by a sparse ranching and utility network, where water management is critical for survival in the arid terrain. A series of named basins such as Malpais Tank, Buster Brown Tank, and Shucking Tank are distributed across the drainage of Partridge Creek, supporting local operations near the Bishop Place settlement.

The presence of a Radio Facility and a Pipeline cutting across the central hills reflects the modernization of this remote area, while an established Jeep Trail and other unnamed tracks provide the primary means of navigation through the sage and stone. To the south, Pineveta Wash snakes away from the slopes of the primary peaks, past the Field Dam, illustrating the seasonal flow and catchment systems that have historically dictated the patterns of human activity in this part of northern Arizona.
