2014 Map of Sycamore Point

About this map

Sycamore Point serves as a dramatic vantage over the intricate drainages where the Kaibab National Forest, Coconino National Forest, and Prescott National Forest converge. This 2014 survey details a high-elevation landscape defined by deep incisions like Sycamore Canyon and Secret Canyon, which break the plateau into distinct ridges such as Buck Ridge. The presence of numerous isolated water sources, including Winter Cabin Spring, Babes Hole Spring, and Strahan Spring, suggests a territory managed for both conservation and livestock, supported by a network of tanks like Turkey Butte Tank and Mooney Tank. Historically used routes such as Sycamore Point Rd and Jerome Rd connect these remote landmarks across the varied terrain of Turkey Butte and Colcord Hill, reflecting the enduring importance of forest access in this part of Coconino County.
