1982 Map of Pastora Peak

About this map

Navajo Indian Reservation land dominates this 1982 provisional survey of Apache County, where the high elevations of the Carrizo Mountains meet a complex network of seasonal washes. The topography is defined by prominent landmarks like Pastora Peak and Zibeted Peak, with the expansive Toh Chin Lini Mesa and Chezhindezza Mesa providing a glimpse into the dramatic plateau landscape. Water sources are critical identifiers in this arid region, marked by numerous named points such as Stop Trail Spring, Redrock Spring, and First Spring. These locations, alongside drainage systems like Blackhorse Creek and Teec Nos Pos Wash, illustrate the traditional land use and environmental constraints of the area. Resource exploration is also evident through several oil wells, drillholes, and prospects scattered across the terrain, reflecting late-twentieth-century industrial interest in this part of Arizona.
