1966 Map of La Vida Mission

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

La Vida Mission serves as a focal point for this mid-1960s landscape, positioned near the Chaco River and its own La Vida Mission Landing Strip. The map illustrates a region defined by scattered Navajo community hubs and historic outposts, including the Tsaya Trading Post and the educational grounds of the Lake Valley Boarding School. Towards the south, the terrain descends into the Kim-me-ni-oli Valley, where the Kim-me-ni-oli Ruins offer a glimpse into the ancient ancestral Puebloan heritage of the area, just north of the Chaco Canyon National Monument boundary. This survey captures a specific moment in the rural development of the San Juan and McKinley county line, where community life is centered around the Lake Valley Chapter House and local geographical landmarks like Yellow Point and Juans Lake.
