1972 Map of Montezumas Chair NW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape is defined by vast Sand Dunes and ephemeral water systems in this 1972 field-checked survey. The terrain is marked by the winding paths of Jadito Wash and Coyote Wash, which cut through the arid high desert. Isolated indicators of human infrastructure are sparse, appearing primarily as a Well and a labeled Wt (water tank), reflecting the critical importance of water management in this region of the Navajo Indian Reservation Boundary. The map also delineates the Coconino Co Navajo Co line and the Joint Use Area Boundary, capturing the administrative and tribal divisions of the era. This document preserves the exact topography of the Navajo lands before later shifts in land use and boundary designations.
