2021 Map of Limestone Canyon South

About this map

Blue Spring and its namesake Blue Spring Canyon form a central hydrological focus in this part of Navajo Co. The landscape is defined by a network of drainage systems including Cibecue Canyon and Turkey Canyon, which are separated by prominent high ground such as Cibecue Ridge and Limestone Ridge. This 2021 survey shows a region where water management is critical for land use, evidenced by the presence of Cedar Mesa Tanks, Lost Tank, and Limestone Ridge Tank Number Two. Access through these deep canyon systems is limited to specific routes like Indian Rte 35 and Indian Rte 36, which follow the natural contours of the terrain. The map provides a detailed view of the remote drainages of Carrizo Cr and Corduroy Cr as they appeared in the early 21st century.
