1953 Map of Los Gigantes SW
USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
Round Rock Trading Post serves as a focal point in this high-desert landscape within the Navajo Indian Reservation. The geography is defined by significant elevation changes and seasonal watercourses, with Hasbidito Creek and Lukachukai Creek cutting through the terrain. The presence of the Los Gigantes Buttes dominates the northeastern portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the complex erosion patterns of the area. Small-scale water management is evident through features like Hasbidito Spring, several instances of a Dam, and a Ditch near the southern boundary. These early 1950s details provide a view of the infrastructure and natural landmarks essential to life in the Apache County backcountry during this era.
