1972 Map of Arrowhead Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Navajo Indian Reservation lands dominate this 1970s topographic study, revealing a high-desert landscape defined by volcanic landforms and traditional seasonal water sources. The Hopi Buttes rise significantly above the surrounding terrain, with prominent landmarks such as Arrowhead Butte and Smooth Butte serving as critical navigational points. The drainage of Pueblo Colorado Wash meanders across the central portion of the map, illustrating the importance of ephemeral water systems in this arid region. Human activity and pastoral land use are marked by a network of unimproved tracks labeled as Jeep Tr and scattered infrastructure, including several Water Tanks and a isolated Well. This survey captures the region just before modern development, preserving the spatial relationship between these natural landmarks and the utilitarian needs of the local inhabitants.
