1998 Map of Vernon
USGS Topo · Published 2000About this map
Vernon School and the high volcanic terrain of the Colorado Plateau define this landscape in the late 20th century. The area is characterized by scattered cinder cones and prominent landforms such as Smooth Knoll, Burnt Knoll, and Dutch Mountain, which rise above the surrounding juniper and pinyon woodlands of the Sitgreaves National Forest. Water management is central to the settlement pattern here, evidenced by the Mineral Ditch and a network of ephemeral basins and springs including Laguna Salada and Anderson Lake. The map identifies the historic Floy (Site), preserving its location even as modern forest roads and 4WD tracks replace older pioneer trails. The presence of a Cinder Pit underscores the local geology and the extraction of volcanic materials for infrastructure in this high-altitude Arizona environment.
