About this map

Antelope Mesa dominates the landscape of this Navajo County region, where the high desert terrain is carved by the winding course of Jeddito Wash. The settlement of Keams Canyon occupies the northern reaches, serving as a focal point for a network of tribal routes including Indian Rte 65 and Indian Rte 60. The map documents the spatial relationship between established communities and smaller locales like Lamb Well and Kokopnyama, reflecting the enduring settlement patterns on tribal lands.

Insights into the local infrastructure are revealed through the presence of specialized roads such as Rout 9101 and Indian Rte 9103. These thoroughfares provide access across the mesa's undulating contours, connecting isolated wells and traditional sites. The geographic layout highlights the importance of drainage systems like the wash for orienting movement and habitation within this arid environment.
