About this map

Bluff serves as the focal point of this late 1980s landscape, situated where Cottonwood Wash meets the northern banks of the San Juan River. The town's layout is recorded alongside local landmarks like the Cem and St Christophers Mission, while the surrounding terrain is defined by dramatic geological formations. To the north of the settlement, Navajo Twins and Sunbonnet Rock stand as prominent markers near the mouth of Cow Canyon. Across the river to the south, the map details the northern edge of the Navajo Indian Reservation on the Casa Del Eco Mesa. Numerous exploration points are documented across the high ground, including a series of Drill Holes and Oil Wells that speak to the region's mineral and water surveying history on the Bluff Bench.
