1955 Map of Nazlini

About this map

Nazlini and the surrounding high desert of the Navajo Indian Reservation appear here in a mid-century topographic study. The landscape is defined by its complex drainage network, where Nazlini Creek and Tsegi-ot-Sosi Creek carve through the prominent elevations of Rock Mesa. To the northeast, the map touches upon the boundaries of Canyon de Chelly National Mon, while the southern reaches are marked by seasonal watercourses like Black Soil Wash and Willow Wash.
