2011 Map of White Pockets

About this map

Clayhole Wash and Sandridge Wash carve through this remote section of the Arizona Strip, defining a landscape where water management is central to the history of land use. In the early 21st century, these ephemeral drainages are punctuated by vital infrastructure for ranching and survival in the high desert, including the White Pockets Windmill and several catchment features. Reservoirs such as Rockhole Pocket Reservoir and Harolds Reservoir appear alongside natural depressions like Snake Pond, showing the essential network of watering holes in this arid environment.
