About this map

Tuba City serves as a primary hub in this arid landscape, situated just north of the village of Moenkopi. The 2014 terrain is defined by dramatic geological formations, stretching from the Moenkopi Plateau in the center to the broad Tohnali Mesa in the southwest. Transport through the region follows established corridors like Us-160 and Az-264, which intersect near the Kerley Valley.

Isolated water sources are vital landmarks here, including John Etsitty Spring and Goldtooth Spring, which support life in an area otherwise marked by dry features such as Moenkopi Wash and Water Thief Canyon. Notable natural monuments like Three Wise Men and the Balanced Rock provide distinct navigational points for those traveling between Tohnali and the surrounding canyonlands. The map clearly illustrates the transition from high plateau surfaces down into the sheltered pockets of Navajo Canyon and Pasture Canyon.
