About this map

Rotten Bananas Butte and Flat Top Butte dominate this section of Navajo County, rising above a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and essential water sources. This 2021 survey illustrates the sparse but critical network of springs and seeps used in this arid environment, including Buzzard Spring, Mackelprang Spring, and the Assan Dechali Spring near the center of the sheet.

Surface water management is evidenced by features like Humpy Tank, while the natural hydrography is carved by Humpy Wash, Cottonwood Wash, and Billy Wash. Transport through the area relies on established routes such as Indian Rte 9857 and Indian Rte 9858, which navigate between the distinctive formations of Standing Rocks and Black Rock. The map provides a clear look at the township and range divisions, showing the junction of T21N and T20N across multiple ranges.
