2021 Map of Little Black Spot Mountain

About this map

Little Black Spot Mtn dominates this Navajo County landscape, serving as a high-elevation landmark above a network of springs and valleys. To the south, the terrain descends into the broad Wepo Valley and the northern reaches of First Mesa. Small local settlements such as Chilchinbeto, Hastin Akahibito, and Talah Nascin are connected by a system of rural routes, including Indian Rte 4 and Indian Rte 8064. The distribution of water sources like Ponderosa Pine Spring, Rough Rock Spring, and Crooked Finger Spring highlights the vital importance of dependable water points for grazing and habitation in this high desert environment. These named springs often indicate established gathering points or homesteads in the local landscape.
