2014 Map of Peterson Flat

About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this section of the Coconino plateau, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of water management features essential for high-desert survival. The topography is marked by notable depressions and drainages such as Peterson Flat and the winding Lockwood Canyon. A long-standing system of stock ponds and reservoirs is evident through family-named features like Skousen Tank, Michigan Tank, and the Old Dent and Sayer Tank, indicating the area's history of ranching and land use. The Arizona National Scenic Trail traverses the western portion of the map, cutting across Russell Wash as it follows the contours of the forest. Forest service roads, including Old 301 Rd. and Old 2741 Rd., provide the primary access through this remote timber and grazing land.
