The Vermilion Cliffs dominate the southern edge of this Coconino County terrain, where the high desert floor abruptly drops away in a series of dramatic contours. This 2014 survey documents the remote expanse of the Paria Plateau, a landscape defined by seasonal water resources like Badger Tank and Moquitch Tank. The map reveals a network of Bureau of Land Management routes, such as Dark Forest Rd and White Knoll Rd, which provide access to isolated landmarks including One Toe Ridge and the Mexican Sink. Between the elevated heights of Pinnacle Ridge and the low stretches of Corral Valley, the map illustrates how topography dictates movement and land use in this arid region, showing the placement of Pine Tree Pockets amidst the shifting Sand Hills.
