1967 Map of Garces Mesas NE

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Hopi Indian Reservation lands dominate this high desert landscape during the late 1960s, a period marked by complex jurisdictional boundaries. The sheet documents the Navajo-Hopi Joint Use Area, illustrating the overlapping territories and shared administrative zones of the era. The terrain is defined by the massive uplift of Padilla Mesa and Garces Mesas, which rise above the surrounding drainage networks. Reliable water sources appear as critical infrastructure in this arid environment, noted by the presence of the Sweet Water Well, Redrock Spring Well, and the Salt Well. Seasonal hydrological patterns are visible in the paths of Oraibi Wash and Saltwater Wash, while a lone Corral and a network of Sand Dunes near Spring suggest the traditional pastoral use of the plateau.
