1983 Map of Beautiful Valley Well

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape documented here is a complex network of seasonal drainage and vital water points in the high desert. Beautiful Valley dominates the central portion of the sheet, where the Bis ti ah Wash and Nazlini Wash converge in a wide, alluvial basin. The mapping reflects the essential infrastructure of a pastoral economy, specifically identifying remote resources like the Beautiful Valley Well and a Water Well situated near the head of Cottonwood Canyon Wash. This 1983 edition, compiled from earlier aerial photographs and field checks, provides a precise record of hydrologic features and terrain markers like Flat Rock and the Flat Rock Reservoir. The intricate labeling of numerous smaller washes, including Tah-ah-cheed Wash and Sand Wash, underscores the importance of every ephemeral watercourse in this arid region of Apache County.
