1983 Map of Pinon
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
The expansive High Plateau of northern Arizona is dominated by the massive Black Mesa and its complex network of washes and canyons. This 1983 survey illustrates the shared geography of the Navajo Indian Reservation and the Hopi Indian Reservation, showing the sparse settlement patterns of Pinon, Rough Rock, and Cow Springs. The map reveals a landscape defined by seasonal water sources and geological landmarks, from the Elephant Feet rock formations in the northwest to the dramatic White Ruin Canyon. The influence of modern infrastructure is visible through the Black Mesa and Lake Powell rail line and a local Coal Mine, while the reliance on historic water sites is evidenced by named points such as Mormon Well, White Waterfall Well, and Whippoorwill Spring.
