2021 Map of Bird Springs Wash

About this map

Ives Mesa stands as a prominent topographic feature in this arid landscape of Navajo County, rising above the surrounding plains. The drainage network is defined by the seasonal flow of Bird Springs Wash and Coyote Wash, which create complex relief patterns across the high desert. Modern infrastructure is represented by a series of tribal roads, primarily Indian Rte 15, which traverses the center of the sheet and connects the area to the broader regional network. The presence of Bird Springs itself indicates a critical water source in this environment. This 2021 survey provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid, showing the boundaries between townships like t22n r15e and t22n r16e, which organize the sparsely settled terrain.
