1966 Map of Kirtland SW

About this map

The high desert landscape of the Navajo Indian Reservation dominates this mid-1960s survey, illustrating a topography defined by erosion and resource extraction. The northern portion of the sheet is marked by the broad drainage of Chinde Wash, while the southern terrain is more deeply incised by the Cottonwood Arroyo. These ephemeral waterways were critical focal points for local land use, as seen at the Cottonwood Springs where a water tank was established to capture the flow in an otherwise arid environment.
