2018 Map of Seepage Mountain

About this map

Prescott National Forest encompasses the high desert and mountainous terrain within this 2018 survey, centered on the prominent Seepage Mtn and Johnson Mtn. The landscape is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages and water sources, from the Williamson Valley Wash to the many isolated springs such as Hyde Spring, Kekel Spring, and Section Thirty Spring. These features suggest a history of ranching and livestock management in an arid environment, further evidenced by man-made infrastructure like the Sawmill Tank and Williamson Valley Tank. To the west, the Santa Maria Mountains rise above Dead Steer Basin, while localized peaks like Goat Peak and Red Mtn provide distinctive landmarks. The presence of routes such as the Adra Loop and Short Cut provides a window into the modern access points through this backcountry Yavapai County region.
