About this map

Petrified Forest National Park boundaries define the southwestern and southern portions of this landscape, where the ephemeral flow of the Puerco River meanders across the high desert terrain. The arid character of the region is evident in the numerous water tanks scattered across the landscape, including Alley Way Tank, Rock Bottom Tank, and Last Chance Tank. These features, alongside Saddle Horse Draw, indicate the critical role of water management in a region where natural flow is seasonal and unpredictable.
