About this map

Split Lip Flats and the high desert terrain of the San Juan Basin define this 2017 survey of the Eastern Navajo Agency. The landscape is marked by the branching drainage of Coal Cr and the larger De-na-zin Wash to the north, showing a topography where water has carved deep into the plateau. The small settlement at Pretty Rock serves as a primary point of reference in an area dominated by open range and significant geographical features like Tsaya Canyon.

Evidence of local travel and infrastructure is visible through the grid of county and tribal routes, including Co RD 7650 and E Charlie Rd. These roads navigate between high-elevation contours and the banks of Black Lake, providing a clear view of how modern transportation corridors follow the natural breaks in the mesas. The map reflects the enduring character of this region, balancing traditional land use with contemporary Bureau of Land Management and tribal administrative boundaries.
