1986 Map of Rock Point
USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
Monument Valley and Comb Ridge define the northern reaches of this high-desert landscape, located within the Navajo Indian Reservation. This mid-1980s data highlights the remote geography of the Four Corners area, where US Highway 160 and US Highway 191 serve as the primary lifelines connecting scattered settlements like Dennehotso and Mexican Water. The map reveals a history of resource extraction through the presence of the Monument No 2 Mine and the Rattlesnake Mine, while the drainage of Chinle Wash and Lukachukai Creek illustrates the complex hydrology of the Carrizo Mountains. From the heights of Carson Mesa to the trading posts at Rock Point, the survey documents a region where traditional land use and industrial exploration meet across the Dibe Chaa Valley.
