1955 Map of Blue Spring NE

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation dominates this high-desert plateau in Coconino County, captured here in a 1955 preliminary survey. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns and isolated water sources, essential for life in this arid region. The presence of a Hogan near the center of the sheet indicates seasonal or permanent habitation within the reservation's boundaries. Topographically, the map is anchored by the massive Big Canyon in the southwest and the distinct elevation of Pillow Mtn in the northwest. Local ranching or livestock movement is suggested by features such as the Stock Tank and unnamed tanks, which rely on seasonal runoff from systems like Sheep Wash and Dry Wash. This map provides a rare, large-scale look at the area's development before more comprehensive 15-minute series maps were finalized.
