2014 Map of Adamana

About this map

Adamana and the surrounding high desert of the Colorado Plateau are defined by the winding course of the Puerco River and the protected lands of Petrified Forest National Park. This landscape reveals a complex network of ephemeral drainage systems like Ninemile Wash and Dry Cr, alongside distinctive geological formations such as The Haystacks and The Tepees. The settlement pattern is sparse, centered on the historic rail-adjacent site of Adamana and the Paulcell Place, connected by rural routes like Co Road 7156. Notable landmarks including Newspaper Rock, Agate Bridge, and Keystone Bridge highlight the unique geological and cultural heritage preserved within the park boundaries, while livestock-related features such as Dry-Cr Tanks point to the area's grazing history.
