2011 Map of Chinle

About this map

Chinle serves as a vital community hub in northeastern Arizona, where the confluence of several geological and cultural landmarks occurs. The landscape is defined by the entrance to Canyon de Chelly, a region of significant tribal importance evidenced by the Navajo Tribal Utility and the Chinle Cemetery. This 2011 survey illustrates the modern layout of the settlement, documenting key infrastructure including the Chinle Post Office, the Chinle Airport, and various service points like the Tsos Trading Post. Water sources like Nazlini Wash and Cottonwood Wash cut through the terrain, which rises into prominent features such as Beautiful Valley and Red Mesa. To the east, the map captures the beginning of deep canyon systems, featuring the Tsegi Overlook and the Canyon de Chelly Trading Post.
