This USGS 7.5-minute topographic map is a 1962 edition printed in 1964, in good condition on thick stock, never folded, with a repaired tear in the top collar that extends slightly into the map area. The quad sits just south of Flagstaff in Coconino County, taking in part of the Coconino National Forest and the communities of Kachina Village and Mountainaire, with the map area itself clean and free of wear or markings. Drawn from a 1959 and 1962 aerial and field survey, it records this stretch of high country before Kachina Village and Forest Highlands existed and reaches into upper Oak Creek Canyon.
