1953 Map of Pastora Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Carrizo Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape within the Navajo Indian Reservation, rising sharply toward Pastora Pk and Zilbetod Peak. In the lower elevations, the settlement of Teec Nos Pos serves as a focal point for the region, featuring the Carrizo Mission Sch and a local Trading Post. To the east, near the Arizona and New Mexico border, the small community of Bitlabito sits alongside Bitlabito Wash, accompanied by the Foutz Trading Post. The map reveals a land defined by its drainage systems, where Tsitah Wash and Tadastoni Wash carve through the northern plains below Cow Butte. These seasonal watercourses and landforms like Toh-Chin-Lini Mesa reflect the geographic isolation and specialized infrastructure of the Four Corners region during the mid-1950s.
