Summary

Significance: Shanley Camp is the second to southernmost of seven line camps within Waring Ranch, a large cattle-grazing operation on a remote plateau north of the Grand Canyon in the Arizona Strip. Jonathan Deyo Waring assembled the ranch between about 1925 and 1953 and operated it with the assistance of a foreman and hired cowhands into the late 1960s. Shanley Camp comprises a cabin, a corral, and a fenced-in series of three stock tanks for watering cattle.
