About this map

Grand Canyon National Park defines the northern and western margins of this Coconino County landscape, where the plateau drops away into a complex network of drainage systems. The high ground is anchored by prominent overlooks like Yunosi Point, Yumtheska Point, and the distinct profile of Flatiron Butte. This 2014 survey illustrates a transition from the protected federal parklands into the surrounding wilderness of the Arizona strip, characterized by deep incisions such as Beaver Canyon and Yunosi Canyon.

Evidence of range management and water collection in this arid environment is visible at Bishop Tank, located in the southeastern quadrant. The map detail highlights the intricate topography of the rim country, showing how runoff from the plateau feeds into Fall Canyon and Whiterock Canyon. These features represent the raw geological character of the region before it descends toward the river corridor further west.
