1968 Map of Rock Point

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Navajo Indian Reservation lands in northeastern Arizona define this 1968 landscape, centered on the settlement of Rock Point. This high-desert region is characterized by significant topographical shifts between Carson Mesa and the drainage of the Chinle Valley Wash. Local utility and commercial life are represented by a Pumping Sta, a Sewage Disposal Pond, and a Trading Post, while the eastern edge of the quadrangle is marked by the historical Old Indian Treaty Boundary. Natural water sources like Setsiltso Springs and various unnamed Springs provided essential resources in an area where terrain features like Plane Rock and Antelope Ridge serve as primary landmarks. The presence of a Drill Hole suggests subsurface exploration in a valley otherwise defined by its geological formations and traditional reservation boundaries.
