1972 Map of Horsehead Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Zuni Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the convergence of the Zuni River, Pescado River, and Nutria Rio in this early 1970s topographic study. The terrain is marked by significant geologic features such as the prominent Feather Rock and the winding depths of Horsehead Canyon. Evidence of land use and transition is clear through the Old Indian Reservation Boundary and the presence of industrial sites, including a Quarry and Coal mines in the northeastern quadrant. Local landmarks like Knife Hill and Knife Canyon provide specific points of interest for those studying the physical geography of McKinley County. The small settlement area of Two Grey Hills and the established Nutria Road highlight the human footprint within this complex system of canyons and river valleys.
