About this map

Oak Creek Mtn. dominates this high-altitude landscape within the Navajo Indian Reservation during the early 1980s. The topography is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and ephemeral water sources, most notably the winding Yellow Lone Tule Wash and Black Soil Wash. The presence of Tseja-Kinsikadi Spring and Black Soil Spring suggests vital water points in an otherwise arid terrain. While human habitation is sparse, the infrastructure of the era is represented by Steel Tower Power Lines that cut across the plateau. The various named washes, such as Sage House Wash and Ruin Wash, hint at a landscape that has long supported local populations, with names reflecting both natural features and historical sites of interest to researchers of the region's geography.
