About this map

Kaibab National Forest dominates this Coconino County terrain, characterized by a series of steep escarpments and isolated water sources essential for high-desert navigation. The map follows the distinct Snake/Kanab route as it skirts the northern edge of Toothpick Ridge and the prominent Table Rock. This area is defined by its deep drainages, including Table Rock Canyon and Toothpick Canyon, which intersect the plateau.

Functional landmarks for land management and ranching are scattered throughout the landscape, identified by reliable points such as Table Rock Spring and various catchment systems like Pigeon Tank, Slide Tank, and East Slide Tank. These features, along with named vantage points like Willow Point and the ominous Suicide Ridge, offer critical spatial context for this portion of Northern Arizona, documenting the relationship between the rugged geology and the managed forest boundaries.
