2018 Map of Pastora Peak

About this map

Pastora Peak dominates this high-elevation landscape within the Carrizo Mountains of Apache County, Arizona. The terrain is characterized by a complex drainage system, where intermittent waterways like Tsitah Wash and Tso Tsosic Wash carve through the elevated plateaus of Chezhindeza Mesa and Toh Chin Lini Mesa. These geological features are accessible via a network of tribal routes, including Indian Rte 5043 and Indian Rte 5016, which traverse the high desert floor. Local water sources are noted at Sidehill Spring and Forst Spring, suggesting traditional seasonal utility in an otherwise arid environment. The map captures a section of the Navajo Nation just prior to 2018, illustrating the intersection of ancient geological landforms and modern jurisdictional road designations.
