1971 Map of Houck

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Houck and Allentown serve as the primary focal points along the river corridor in this high-desert portion of the Navajo Indian Reservation. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the Puerco River and Black Creek, creating a natural transportation bottleneck where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and Interstate 40 parallel each other. Local commerce and communal life are evidenced by the Big Arrow Trading Post, while spiritual and social services are anchored by the Tegakwitha Mission and Good News Mission.
