About this map

Coconino National Forest and the deep incision of Walnut Canyon define this landscape east of Flagstaff during the late 1960s. The survey captures a vital transportation corridor where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and the Interstate 40 highway system (marked here as 40 66 180) parallel each other through high-altitude terrain. Small settlements and sidings like Cosnino, Winona, and Darling are situated along these transit lines, reflecting the area's role in connecting the Arizona interior.

In the southwest, the Walnut Canyon National Monument preserves a significant geological and cultural area, while the surrounding land is dotted with essential water resources like Santa Fe Dam and numerous livestock tanks, including Onyx Tank and Fryer Tank. Industrial activity is noted at the Cinder Pit near Cinder Mountain, and the presence of Ruins and Foster Ranch provides touchpoints for local historians and genealogists studying the rural development of Coconino County.
