About this map

Navajo Indian Reservation lands in Coconino County define this 1982 topographic study, dominated by the prominent plateau of Preston Mesa in the north and the shifting landscape of Sand Dunes to the south. The high desert environment is marked by sparse but critical infrastructure, including multiple locations of a Corral and a functional Guzzler, pointing to a geography shaped by livestock management and water conservation in an arid climate. To the southwest, the terrain rises toward White Point, while the presence of a Radio Facility on the mesa indicates the intersection of traditional land use with modern communications. The map meticulously records the 4WD tracks and trails that served as the primary transit network through this portion of the reservation during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
