2014 Map of Rose Well Camp West

About this map

Rose Well Camp serves as a lone reference point in this arid stretch of Coconino County, characterized by a series of specialized water catchments essential for ranching or survival in the high desert. The landscape is defined by the drainage of Chino Wash and the distinct formation of Crater Canyon in the southwest. A network of "tubs"—including Wheat Tub, Tub Number One, Tub Number Two, and Tub Number Three—indicates a managed system of water storage, likely utilized for livestock. These man-made or improved water sources, such as Mexican Tank and Tub B, are critical landmarks in a region otherwise marked by isolated terrain and high-elevation contours. The map reflects a modern era of land management where these small-scale features are the primary indicators of human activity and resource utilization across the open range.
