2011 Map of Tanner Springs

About this map

Tanner Springs serves as a focal point within this desert landscape of Apache County, located along the southern reaches of the Navajo Nation. The map captures a high-desert environment defined by seasonal drainage patterns, most notably the meandering course of the Wide Ruin Wash which cuts through the southern half of the quadrangle. Transportation across this arid terrain relies on designated routes like Indian Rte 9401, connecting isolated water sources and small settlements. Evidence of local infrastructure is found at Clark Well and the specific local designation of Tanner Spg, illustrating the critical importance of water management and named springs for the residents and livestock in this part of Arizona.
