2018 Map of Snowflake

About this map

Snowflake sits at the heart of this Navajo County landscape, defined by a sophisticated system of water management essential for high-desert life. The map reveals the intricate path of The Canal and the E Snowflake Ditch, which divert water from Silver Cr to support the local community. The terrain is marked by a series of sequential landmarks, from Fourmile Knoll and Fivemile Draw to Sixmile Draw, suggesting an era of overland travel where distance was measured by these distinctive natural features. To the east, the broad expanse of Concho Flat and the elevations of Pin Head Knoll and Point Lookout overlook a network of ranch roads and trails, including Star Ranch Trl and Rockin R Ranch Rd, illustrating the continued importance of the ranching economy in the region.
