1936 Map of Chimney Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The San Juan River and the Chaco River converge in this high-desert landscape of the mid-1930s, documenting a critical intersection of indigenous lands and early resource development. The settlement of Ship Rock serves as a primary hub within the Navajo Indian Reservation, while the northeastern corner of the map touches the Southern Ute Indian Reservation at the Colorado-New Mexico border. This period captures the early industrial footprint of the region, including the Agency Coal Mine and a network of water management features like the Irrigation Ditch systems near the riverbanks.
