About this map

Cameron serves as a central hub on the Navajo Indian Reservation in this 1982 survey, situated near the dramatic Little Colorado River Gorge. The landscape is defined by massive geographic features, including the Painted Desert and the rising Coconino Plateau. Notable archaeological and administrative sites are located in the southern portion of the map within the Wupatki National Monument, specifically Lomaki Ruin and Wukoki Ruin.

Evidence of local water management and early infrastructure appears through labels such as the Gaging Station and various wells like Tohachi Well and Basin Well. The topography transitions from the forested reaches of the Kaibab National Forest to the arid expanses of Ward Terrace and the Adeii Eechii Cliffs. This survey records the region just as the road network and reservation boundaries were firmly established in the late twentieth century.
