1971 Map of Antelope Lake

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape in Apache County is defined by its drainage systems and infrastructure in the early 1970s. Arroyos and intermittent streams like Wide Wash and Antelope Wash shape the terrain, which rises toward Oak Ridge and drops into the depths of Pine Canyon. The presence of a Landing Strip, a prominent Pipeline, and a Pumping Station indicates the importance of transportation and resource management in this high-desert environment. Seasonal water sources such as Antelope Lake and Hidden Lake provide vital landmarks, while a Corral and several wells, including the Pine Canyon Well, point to the region's ranching activity and reliance on groundwater.
