1977 Map of Chaco Mesa

About this map

Chaco Mesa dominates this high-desert landscape in the late 1970s, where the Continental Divide winds through a region defined by complex drainage systems like Chaco Wash and Chico Arroyo. The map reveals a specific cultural and economic network of the era, marked by established remote outposts such as Star Lake Trading Post, Johnson Trading Post, and Prairie Dog Trading Post. These locations, along with settlements like Whitehorse and Hospah, illustrate the enduring reliance on trading centers in this corner of McKinley and Sandoval counties.
