About this map

Prospect Point and the Prospect Ridge dominate this high-plateau landscape within Coconino County, characterized by the dramatic verticality of the Aubrey Cliffs. This 2014 survey reveals a desert water management system essential for local ranching and land use, defined by scattered catchment basins like Bear Tank, Thompson Tank, and Copper Tank.

The central drainage of Mohawk Cr flows through the prominent Mohawk Canyon, eventually feeding into Laguna Lake within the wider Laguna Valley. Transportation in this arid region is limited to remote corridors like Bia-11 and Bia-13, which navigate the township and range lines of the high desert. To the south, the terrain begins to flatten toward Albers Wash, marking a transition from the elevated cliffs to lower drainage plains.
