2021 Map of Adamana

About this map

The settlement of Adamana sits along a northern corridor of local roads and rail access, serving as a gateway to the surrounding high desert. This region is defined by the extensive boundaries of Petrified Forest National Park, where the landscape is marked by unique geologic formations and prehistoric sites. The Puerco River and its seasonal tributaries, such as Ninemile Wash and Dry Cr, cut through the terrain, influencing the placement of early crossings and travel routes. Notable landmarks like Newspaper Rock and The Tepees indicate the area's significance for both natural history and archeology. Cultural features such as Agate Bridge and Keystone Bridge demonstrate how the park's infrastructure was designed to highlight these natural wonders, while the Blue Mesa Scenic Rd provides a dedicated path for exploring the layered clay and siltstone formations of the The Haystacks.
