2020 Map of Becenti Lake

About this map

Becenti Lake serves as a central feature in this arid landscape of the Eastern Navajo Agency, where the drainage patterns of ephemeral watercourses define the terrain. The northern half of the map is dominated by the winding paths of Kim-me-ni-oli Wash and Seven Lakes Wash, which cut through the high desert floor. These natural features illustrate the traditional importance of seasonal water management in McKinley County. Human infrastructure is concentrated along the southern corridor, specifically following the path of Navajo Svc Rte 9. This route provides the primary transit artery across the townships of T18N and T19N, connecting the remote lake area to the broader regional network of the Navajo Nation.
