2011 Map of Prospect Point

About this map

Laguna Valley dominates this high-desert landscape in Coconino County, characterized by a sparse but essential network of water collection points. In an environment where surface water is seasonal, the presence of numerous named catchments like Turkey Tank, Natural Tank, and Thompson Tank illustrates the historical reliance on these features for livestock and travel across the plateau. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Prospect Point and Prospect Ridge, which offer vantage points over the drainage systems of Mohawk Creek and Albers Wash. Transportation in this modern era relies on established routes such as B I A Hwy 11 and Indian Service Road 13, which connect the remote drainage basins and grazing lands. The map provides a clear record of these isolated landmarks and the infrastructure required to navigate the arid northern Arizona territory.
