2018 Map of French Butte

About this map

Dilkon serves as the primary hub in this corner of the Navajo Nation, where the high desert is defined by a series of prominent volcanic landforms and mesas. To the south and west, a cluster of distinctively named heights including French Butte, Castle Butte, and Cockscomb Butte rise sharply from the surrounding flats. The drainage system is equally prominent, with Coyote Wash and Sunflower Butte Wash carving paths through the arid landscape toward Echo Spring Mtn. This U.S. Geological Survey representation reveals a network of essential routes like Indian Rte 60 and Indian Rte 9857 that connect isolated water sources such as Echo Spring and Tode Baha Tsiquith. The land is meticulously partitioned by the Public Land Survey System, showing the township and range lines that govern this high-plateau geography.
