1967 Map of Nicoll Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Candy Kitchen and the surrounding high desert terrain define this mid-century topographic record of the Zuni Plateau region. Located within the Ramah Indian Reservation, the landscape is characterized by a complex network of seasonal drainages, including Medio Draw, Loma del Draw, and White Horse Draw, which channel runoff through the arid basins. The presence of the Ramah Navajo Community Center in the north indicates the center of local social and administrative life for the Navajo community during the late 1960s. To the east, the eponymous Nicoll Lake sits at the foot of rising elevations. This survey also documents the administrative divide of the McKinley and Valencia County line, offering a precise look at the land use and indigenous land boundaries before modern development and regional reorganization.
