2010 Map of East of Grey Hill Spring

About this map

Arid drainage systems and ephemeral watercourses dominate this terrain within the Fort Defiance Agency. The primary transportation artery through this landscape is Indian Service Route 9652, which traverses the southern portion of the quadrangle. This area of New Mexico is characterized by its isolation and the intricate network of dry washes that feed into larger regional basins. For researchers and historians, the map's depiction of the local road infrastructure provides a baseline for understanding the connectivity of tribal lands during the early 21st century, showing how modern transit routes follow the natural contours of the high desert topography.
