1963 Map of Sycamore Point

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Sycamore Canyon carves a deep, serpentine path through this 1963 survey of the Arizona high country, where the borders of the Kaibab National Forest, Coconino National Forest, and Prescott National Forest converge. The landscape is a complex network of drainage basins and water sources critical to the region's management, featuring numerous cattle tanks and isolated springs like Babes Hole Spring and Geronimo Spring. Human activity is centered on forest oversight and access, anchored by the Turkey Butte Lookout and the Taylor Cabin Trail descending toward the canyon floor. From the high vantage of Sycamore Point, the map details a rugged transition from timbered flats like Thumb Flat to the dramatic verticality of the canyon walls. The naming of features like Railroad Draw Tanks and Rattlesnake Burn reflects a long history of ranching, fire management, and early transportation routes in this part of Coconino County.
