2020 Map of Horsehead Canyon NW

About this map

Rio Nutria and Rio Pescado define the drainage patterns of this high-elevation landscape within the Eastern Navajo Agency. The terrain is characterized by a series of significant canyons and draws, including Coal Mine Canyon, Burned Timber Canyon, and the broad Vanderwagen Draw. A series of water management features are prominent here, specifically Nutria Reservoir Number 2, Nutria Reservoir Number 3, and Nutria Reservoir Number 4, which sit along the drainage of the Rio Nutria. The map also captures the network of Bureau of Indian Affairs routes, such as Indian Svc Rte 7 and Indian Svc Rte 29, which provide access through the complex topography of the McKinley County region.
