1972 Map of Bird Springs Wash

About this map

Navajo Indian Reservation lands dominate this 1970s landscape, characterized by the seasonal drainage patterns of Bird Springs Wash and Coyote Wash. The terrain is defined by the elevation of Ives Mesa and a high desert environment where water sources are critical but sparse. Human modification is evident through a linear Pipeline network and a Borrow Pit located north of the main wash. For researchers of this region, the map documents the locations of essential water points like a Spring and a specific Gravel Dug Well, along with a persistent Jeep Trail crossing the northern dunes. The interface between Coconino Co and Navajo Co is clearly delineated, showing the administrative boundaries during this era of tribal land management.
