1966 Map of Wing Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Kaibab National Forest and Coconino National Forest converge in this high-elevation landscape north of the Interstate 40 corridor. The terrain is defined by volcanic activity and open grazing lands, featuring the prominent Wing Mountain and the subterranean Lava River Cave. Water management is the primary sign of human adaptation here, with a dense network of catchment basins such as Wild Bill Tank, Aspen Tank, and Drowned Timber Tank supporting livestock across Government Prairie. Industrial utility is evident near the eastern edge, where Cinder Pits and a pipeline traverse the foothills. Scattered springs, including Maxwell Spring and Pearson Spring, provide rare natural water sources in an otherwise arid timberland. The small settlement at Camp Two on Brannigan Flat suggests the area's history as a base for forest operations or ranching during the mid-20th century.
