2018 Map of Potato Wash South

About this map

The Mogollon Plateau landscape dominates this high-altitude section of Navajo County, shaped by a complex system of seasonal drainage and water management. Much of the land is preserved within the Sitgreaves National Forest, where the terrain is deeply incised by Chevelon Canyon and Wildcat Canyon. The map reveals the critical importance of water in this arid environment through numerous named catchment features, including Turkey Water Catchment, Bitumul Tank, and Association Tank. These artificial improvements support ranching and wildlife in an area otherwise defined by dry beds like Potato Wash and Sandy Draw. At the northern edge, a small pocket of residential development and transit is visible near the Wisky Ranch/Chevlon Airport, where local routes like Chevlon Ave provide access to the surrounding forest and plateau lands.
