2011 Map of Chaiyahi Rim NE

About this map

The Navajo Mountain Mission anchors this high-desert landscape in northern Coconino County, where the topography is defined by the sharp drop-off of the Chaiyahi Rim. This remote region of the Navajo Reservation is interlaced with seasonal drainages such as Tin Can Wash and Jackrabbit Fork, which carve through the arid plateau toward Jackrabbit Canyon. Transportation in this part of the reservation relies on a network of established routes including Indian Rte-16 and Navajo Reservation Rd, which connect isolated outposts and points of interest. Notable human-made landmarks like the Inscription House Airport and The Old Windmill reflect the essential infrastructure required for survival and travel in this vast, water-dependent environment, while Chaiyahi Creek marks the lower elevations to the south.
