1969 Map of Rock Head

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Adeii Eechii Cliffs and Red Rock Cliffs dominate this Coconino County landscape, illustrating a dramatic transition between the high desert of the Moenkopi Plateau and the lower Ward Terrace. This 1969 field-checked survey within the Navajo Indian Reservation captures a rugged geography defined by intricate escarpments and seasonal drainage networks. A complex system of washes, including the Tohachi Wash and Haada Is Taani Di Wash, carves through the red rock formations toward the western terrace. Human footprints in this arid environment are sparse but significant, centered on remote water sources like Little Mexican Spring, Basin Well, and the Gadii Ahi Tank. Near the eastern edge, the solitary named settlement of Rock Head sits at the base of the Sand Springs Mesa, marking one of the few points of habitation in this isolated stretch of Northern Arizona.
