About this map

Sitgreaves Mountain dominates the eastern horizon of this high-altitude landscape within the Kaibab National Forest. The map documents a complex network of forest access and historical travel routes, most notably the path of Old Rte. 66 cutting across the southern portion of the quadrangle. This legendary corridor passes through the lowlands between Boxcar Hill and Oak Hill, providing a glimpse into the traditional transit artery of Northern Arizona.

The central and western reaches are defined by a series of open basins and volcanic features, including Pitman Valley and the broad Red Lake Valley. The region is heavily marked by water management features essential for ranching and forest service operations, ranging from the naturally occurring Davenport Lake and Dry Lake to numerous named stock tanks such as Keyhole Sink and Buggy Wheel Tank. These features, alongside peaks like Dude Mtn and Bald Mtn, illustrate the land's utility for both livestock and timber management.
