2014 Map of Tanner Well

About this map

Bitter Springs serves as the primary settlement on this northern Arizona landscape, situated at the base of the prominent Echo Cliffs. The terrain is defined by a series of drainage systems, including Tanner Wash and Tiger Wash, which carve through the high desert floor toward the Colorado River corridor. The map details a network of indigenous and rural transit routes, such as Bia-6110 and a trail leading To Hatatsho, indicating the deep-seated movement patterns within the Navajo Nation. Water management is critical in this arid environment, evidenced by scattered features like Limestone Tank, Pine Reservoir, and the namesake Tanner Well. From the heights of Limestone Ridge to the broad expanse of Gray Grass Bench, the topography illustrates the geological transition between the high plateaus and the lower canyon lands.
