About this map

Sisnathyel Mesa and Deer Mesa dominate this high-desert landscape in the Eastern Navajo Agency, where water management is the primary marker of human intervention. The terrain is defined by a network of ephemeral drainages, including Peña Wash, Tancosa Wash, and Torreon Wash, which channel seasonal flow across the arid plateaus. A series of numbered earthen structures—Encino Dam Number 81, Encino Dam Number 83, Encino Dam Number 85, and Encino Dam Number 86—illustrate a systematic approach to stock watering and erosion control in this ranching environment.
