About this map

VABM Pastora Pk and Zilbetod Pk anchor this high-elevation terrain within the Navajo Indian Reservation during the early 1950s. The landscape is defined by the massive Toh-Chin-Lini Mesa, where drainage patterns have carved deep relief into the plateau. This preliminary edition survey reveals the complex drainage network of the high desert, specifically where Toh-Chin-Lini Wash and Walker Wash begin their descent through the breaks. Geologists and land historians can observe how these seasonal watercourses dictate the shape of the mesas and peaks in this part of Apache County. The map captures the area shortly after 1950 aerial photography, providing a precise look at the topographical contours before later developments or updated classifications reached this section of the reservation.
