2021 Map of Polacca
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
Walpi and Sichomovi occupy the prominent heights of First Mesa on this modern survey of the Hopi Reservation. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the mesa tops and the lower basins of Wepo Valley. Settlements like Hano and Polacca are clustered near vital water sources such as Spider Spring and Coyote Spring, while Sipaulovi and Mishongnovi sit atop Second Mesa further west. Modern infrastructure, including the Northland Pioneer College Hopi Center and the Polacca Airport, serves the community alongside long-established villages. The map reveals the ancient logic of habitation in this high desert environment, where town locations are tied to the defensive topography of the mesas and the intermittent drainage of Wepo Wash and Polacca Wash.
