2017 Map of Alamo Mesa East

About this map

Alamo Mesa and the surrounding high desert of the San Juan Basin appear here in high detail, defined by a network of seasonal watercourses and remote plateaus. This corner of the Eastern Navajo Agency is characterized by the convergence of several major drainages, including Alamo Wash, Willow Wash, and De-na-zin Wash, which carve through the arid terrain. The presence of Ojo Alamo Spring marks a rare water source in this dry landscape, while the level expanse of Split Lip Flats contrasts with the mesa's elevation. Transportation in the region is limited to local routes such as Co Rd 7280 and Is Rt 7023, reflecting the area's sparse settlement and the preservation of its natural topography. The map documents the intricate contour lines of the badlands and washes, essential for understanding the hydrological patterns of this high-altitude desert environment.
