About this map

Beclabito Wash and Red Wash dominate this arid landscape in the Shiprock Agency region of San Juan County. The drainage network defines the geography, with smaller tributaries like First Gray Wash and Second Gray Wash cutting through the high plateaus. Significant topographical landmarks such as Rock Pile Mesa and Bruised Ridge rise above the surrounding flats, providing vertical orientation in a terrain marked by deep erosional features like Cottonwood Canyon and Rocky Canyon.

Infrastructure is sparse across this 2020 landscape, primarily consisting of bureau roads such as BIA Rte 5113 and BIA Rd 5038. The presence of Oak Spring in the southern portion suggests the importance of water sources in this remote high-desert environment. Geologic features like Black Rock Point and Feather Hill highlight the variety of volcanic and sedimentary formations found within the Navajo Nation boundaries.
