2021 Map of Page Springs

About this map

Page Springs lies along the riparian corridor of Oak Creek in this 2021 topographic study of the central Arizona desert and canyonlands. The landscape is defined by its complex water management system, documented through numerous livestock and irrigation features such as Spring Ditch, White Flat Tank, and Mesa Blanco Tank. This network suggests a history of ranching and early agriculture supported by the unique hydrology of the area, even as modern residential developments appear near the community of Cottonwood. Within the Coconino National Forest, the terrain transitions from the low-lying Negro Flat to prominent elevations like Windmill Mtn and Anderson Butte. A network of historical routes, including Lime Kiln Trl and Bones Trl, cuts across the rugged topography, while the deep recesses of Loy Canyon and Sheepshead Canyon reveal the natural drainage patterns that have shaped this portion of Yavapai County.
