2010 Map of Newcomb SE

About this map

The Chaco River drainage system dominates this high-desert landscape in the Shiprock Agency region. This 2010 survey illustrates a complex network of seasonal watercourses, including Captain Tom Wash and Hunter Wash, which converge toward the central river valley. The map documents the vital transportation corridors managed for the Navajo Nation, specifically Indian Service Route 5 and Indian Service Route 5008. These routes, along with smaller 4WD tracks, outline the modern infrastructure supporting this rural territory. The terrain is further defined by other named drainages such as Teec-ni-di-tso Wash and Brimhall Wash, providing a clear record of the area's hydrology and road network as it existed at the start of the 21st century.
