About this map

Pueblo Colorado Valley serves as a primary geographic anchor in this high-desert landscape of the Fort Defiance Agency. The 2018 survey reveals a network of tribal routes and local connectors that navigate the drainage systems of the Colorado Plateau, including Pueblo Colorado Wash and Kinlichee Cr. A notable intersection of local infrastructure and community history is found at Kinlichee Boarding School Rd, which branches off Indian Rte 39 to serve the northern reaches of the quadrangle.

Water sources like Be-ite-Lini Spring and numerous ephemeral washes, such as Lone Tule Wash and Burnt Piñon Wash, trace the natural erosional patterns of the terrain. Prominent landmarks such as Choyojidolid Hill and the depths of Cross Canyon define the area's relief. The map documents a contemporary rural layout where named routes like Standing Chimney Rd and Cross Canyon Rd connect dispersed homesteads and grazing lands.
