2014 Map of White Horse Lake

About this map

White Horse Lake and the high-elevation terrain of the Kaibab National Forest dominate this Coconino County landscape. The area is defined by a sophisticated network of water management features essential for ranching and forest management, including JD Dam Lake, Saginaw Tank, and Distribution Tank. The topography shifts from the open stretches of Sunflower Flat and Cobble Flat in the north to the dramatic descent of Tule Canyon and Lee Canyon in the south, where the boundary of the Prescott National Forest begins. Historic travel routes such as Old "127" Rd and Perkins Tank Road provide access to the interior, passing landmarks like Deadman Pocket and Indian Hill. This 2014 survey documents the modern state of these public lands, illustrating the naming conventions of the high desert and the persistent importance of isolated springs and tanks like Holloway Spring in an arid environment.
