About this map

Table Mountain Plateau and the White Hills dominate this section of the Mojave Desert in northern Arizona. The landscape is defined by the transition between the high plateaus and the lower Hualapai Valley to the east. Historically critical water sources in this arid environment are marked by several catchments, including Filarea Tank, Barksdale Tank, and Miller Tank, which supported the region's ranching and transit needs. The southern portion of the sheet rises into the Cerbat Mountains, where the rugged topography contrasts with the emerging residential grid of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. This modern expansion is evident in the systematic road network south of Black Mesa Tank, with named thoroughfares like Pierce Ferry Rd and Stockton Hill Rd serving as the primary arteries through the desert scrub and foothills.
