2013 Map of Coyote Canyon

About this map

Coyote Canyon anchors this high-desert landscape in McKinley County, where the topography is defined by a dense network of washes and deep canyons. The settlement is positioned at the intersection of Navajo Service Route 9 and a network of unpaved tracks, including the Kerr Maggie Rd and Old Crpt Rd. Notable geological landmarks like the Coyote Arch and peaks such as Dzil Nda Kai Mtn and Little Ear Mtn rise above the drainage systems of Coyote Wash and Figueredo Wash. The southern portion of the survey is characterized by intricate canyon systems, including Window Rock Canyon, Pumpkin Canyon, and Peach Spring Canyon. This 2013 data provides a modern record of the roads and natural features within the Fort Defiance Agency area, documenting the persistence of traditional place names alongside modern service routes.
