2023 Map of Navajo Dam

About this map

The Navajo Reservoir dominates this high-desert landscape in northern New Mexico, where the San Juan River and Los Pinos River meet at the Navajo Dam infrastructure. This survey captures the complex intersection of the San Juan and Rio Arriba county line amidst a topography defined by deep drainages like Gobernador Canyon and Dick Earl Canyon. The settlement of Navajo City sits in the southwest corner along the canyon floor, while the surrounding mesas are marked by landmarks such as El Gobernador Knob and the crossing at Smith Pass. The mapping shows a network of resource and access roads, including Arroyo Flats Rd and Delasso Loos Rd, which navigate the broken terrain between the reservoir shoreline and the interior canyons like La Jara Canyon.
