About this map

Pinedale Work Center and the small community of Linden anchor this topographic survey of the Arizona high country during the late 1990s. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage systems of the Sitgreaves National Forest, where deep cuts like Lewis Canyon and Bear Canyon drop toward the Fort Apache Indian Reservation boundary. The area’s reliance on water management is evident in the dense network of tanks and springs, including Pinedale Spring and Turkey Lake, which supported local ranching operations like the Cheney Ranch.

Genealogists and local historians can locate early burial grounds at Pinedale Cem and Burton Cem, providing a direct link to the families of Navajo County. The map also documents the timber and resource infrastructure of the era, from the Juniper Ridge Lookout to the Gravel Pit and the former Standard (Site), illustrating how the forest service and local industry utilized the ridge-and-wash terrain.
