2013 Map of East Fork Kutz Canyon

About this map

Twin Angels Pueblo sits atop the high ground overlooking the confluence of significant drainages in this corner of the San Juan Basin. The landscape is defined by the erosion-carved depths of Kutz Canyon, where the West Fork Kutz Canyon and the East Fork Kutz Canyon meet amidst a network of mesas. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern rural infrastructure of the Eastern Navajo Agency, showing a grid of administrative roads such as Road 7100 and Co Road 7175 that negotiate the broken terrain. The presence of the pueblo site highlights the long-standing significance of these canyon rims, which served as points of navigation and habitation for centuries before the establishment of the contemporary township and range boundaries that now section the New Mexico desert.
