Summary

Significance: Dinner Pocket is the southernmost in a series of line camps within Waring Ranch, a large cattle-grazing operation on a remote plateau north of the Grand Canyon in the Arizona Strip. J. D. Waring assembled the ranch between about 1925 and 1953 and operated it with the assistance of foremen and hired cowhands into the late 1960s. The Dinner Pocket camp, established by rancher William Shanley before 1922 at the site of a natural water reservoir, comprises a log house, corral, and a fenced grazing area adjacent to a natural water reservoir.
