1967 Map of Sand Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Moenkopi Plateau dominates this high-desert landscape within the Navajo - Hopi Joint Use Area during the late 1960s. This survey illustrates a complex administrative geography, defined by the Navajo-Hopi Joint Use Area Boundary and the Hopi Indian Res. Settlement is sparse, anchored by Sand Springs and scattered water sources critical for life in this arid environment, such as Whisky Spring, Drag Spring, and the Sand Valley Well. Drainage patterns like Dinnebito Wash and Saltwater Wash carve through the terrain, while the southeastern corner is marked by the distinct rises of the Garces Mesas and shifting Sand Dunes. The map provides a look at the infrastructure of the reservation before significant modern developments, focusing on the natural topography and essential water points.
