1955 Map of Sunset Knoll 2 SW

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

West Sunset Mountain and its eastern counterpart dominate the high-desert landscape in this mid-century survey of Coconino County. The topography is defined by the deep incision of Jacks Canyon and the winding course of Clear Creek, which carves through the southern plateau. This era of land management is heavily marked by water infrastructure essential for livestock, including Dick Hart Tank, Red Tanks, and numerous unnamed stock tanks scattered across the draws. A significant geological break occurs at Sunset Pass, where the terrain drops between the two primary mountain masses. This 1955 mapping provides a look at the remote cattle-grazing territory before modern development, recording specific topographic landmarks like East Sunset and the Stock Peaks that served as primary reference points for local ranchers and early travelers through the high Arizona desert.
