1989 Map of Williams South

About this map

Williams serves as the focal point of this late 20th-century survey, situated at the base of the massive Bill Williams Mountain. The area is a critical junction for the northern Arizona highland infrastructure, featuring the Williams Junction and the sprawling Kaibab National Forest. Water management is central to the landscape, evidenced by the Saginaw Reservoirs, City Reservoir, and the Dogtown Reservoir to the east. The map captures the town's transition into a recreation and service hub, noting the Williams Ski Area and Cataract Lake Campgrounds. Local genealogists and historians will find value in the precise location of the Mountain View Cemetery and the outlying Benham Ranch, while the numerous cattle tanks like Babbitt Tank and Wounded Ranger Tank illustrate the region's enduring ranching heritage.
