About this map

Jones Ranch School and the community of Chi Chil Tah serve as the primary landmarks in this high-desert portion of the Eastern Navajo Agency. The landscape is defined by a dense network of canyons and arroyos, including the prominent Manuelito Canyon, Window Rock Canyon, and the sprawling drainage of Whitewater Arroyo. This modern survey illustrates the development of local infrastructure within McKinley County, highlighting a complex grid of bureau and service routes such as Navajo BIA Road 7041 and Navajo Svc Rte 7043.

Historically significant water sources like Badger Spring near Big House Canyon are carefully recorded, indicating the vital importance of natural springs in this arid terrain. The map provides a precise look at the township and range boundaries of t13n r20w and t13n r19w, showing how contemporary land use and road networks like Jones Ranch Rd follow the natural topography of the mesas and canyons.
