2011 Map of Yellowhorse Flat

About this map

Yellowhorse Flat dominates the central landscape of this high desert terrain on the Arizona-Utah border, situated between the expansive heights of West Mesa and East Mesa. The 2011 survey reveals an arid environment defined by seasonal drainage patterns, where Dutchman Draw and Quail Draw channel water toward Dutchman Wash and the more prominent Fort Pearce Wash to the north. Connectivity in this isolated region is provided by Sunshine Trail Rd, which snakes across the flats and past Joe Blake Hill. The map also identifies localized water sources and landmarks like Blake Pond and the prominent Little Black Mountain at the northwestern edge, serving as vital navigation points in a landscape shaped by mesas and dry washes.
