About this map

Red Mountain anchors this high-elevation Yavapai County landscape, defined by a complex network of water catchments and forest roads. This 2012 survey documents the critical infrastructure of the arid high country, where named tanks like Section Seventeen Tank, Section Eighteen Tank, and Limestone Tank provide essential water sources across the sections. The drainage of Pine Cr and Pine Spring Draw Tank further illustrates the hydrology of the region, while the presence of Red Mountain Tanks near the primary summit suggests long-standing land management for livestock or wildlife.

Transportation through this part of the Coconino Plateau relies on a series of Forest Service routes, including Forest Service 6 Rd and FR 664. These tracks connect remote features such as Walter Spreader Tank and Big Dam Tank, revealing a landscape where every nameable water source is a vital landmark. The map provides a clear picture of the modern infrastructure and topography in this part of Arizona.
