2020 Map of Chi Chil Tah

About this map

Chi Chil Tah is a focal point of this high-desert landscape within the Eastern Navajo Agency, where the terrain is defined by deep drainage systems and prominent landmarks like the Zuni Buttes. The movement of water across this arid plateau has carved significant features such as Whitewater Arroyo in the north and Bosson Wash to the south. Transportation in this region relies on a network of Bureau of Indian Affairs and local routes, including Indian Svc Rte 7010 and Stinkwater Well Rd. The map illustrates a complex system of canyon roads and mesa tracks, such as Oak Mesa Rd and White Water Canyon Rd, which reflect the historic and modern patterns of land use and navigation across these sprawling tribal lands in McKinley County.
