About this map

Nantac Rim and the sprawling heights of Black Mesa define this high-altitude landscape in Graham County. The terrain is a network of water management features and seasonal drainages, essential for ranching and survival in this arid environment. Named tanks such as Cowboy Tank, Skeleton Tank, and Oak Grove Tank are scattered across the quadrangle, indicating a history of livestock grazing and land use. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the Park Creek Cabins located near the eastern boundary where Park Cr winds through the canyons.

Transport through these remote sections relies on rugged routes like Black River Rd and Co Rd 11. The topography is marked by significant elevation changes, from the deep cuts of Maverick Canyon and Deadman Canyon to the sharp edge of the rim. Natural water sources like Rose Garden Spring and Cold Spring provide rare breaks in the dry highlands, supporting the local ecosystem and historical range operations.
