1972 Map of Greasewood

About this map

Greasewood serves as a central hub on the Navajo Indian Reservation during the early 1970s, situated near the county line where Navajo Co Apache Co meet. The settlement is defined by its educational and utility infrastructure, including a prominent Boarding School, a Water Tank, and nearby Sewage Disposal Ponds. The surrounding arid landscape is deeply etched by the seasonal hydrology of the Pueblo Colorado Wash and Big Dam Wash, which dictate the placement of local resources. Numerous instances of a Spring or Well are scattered across the terrain, indicating the vital importance of water access in this desert environment. Small-scale resource extraction is noted at a Quarry to the northeast, while local history is marked by a small Cem located near the main cluster of buildings, providing a detailed look at the community footprint before modern expansion.
