About this map

The high desert landscape of the Navajo Indian Reservation in Coconino County is defined here by its scattered water sources and shifting terrain. This 1982 survey reveals a network of wells, many bearing family or local names such as Benally Well, Tapaha Well, and Bahe Adakai Well, which serve as vital landmarks across the arid expanse. These points of interest are connected by unimproved roads and 4WD tracks that navigate between the prominent Crooked Ridge in the northwest and expansive fields of Sand Dunes to the southeast. The map illustrates a specialized land use where named water features like Preston Well and White Sand Well dictate the movement and settlement patterns within this portion of the reservation. For those researching local geography or family history, these specific named locations provide concrete ties to the land at the start of the 1980s.
