1966 Map of Sanostee West

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Beautiful Mountain dominates the western high ground of this high-desert landscape within the Navajo Indian Reservation. The terrain is defined by a complex drainage network where Sanostee Wash and Tse-clani-to Wash cut through deep canyons and wide alluvial flats. This 1960s survey illustrates a rural infrastructure centered on intermittent water sources, featuring essential utilities like a Sewage Disposal site and a remote Well. To the east, Rock Ridge provides a distinct geological boundary above the lower reaches of Pajarito Creek. The map documents a period of specialized land use in San Juan County, where the relationship between seasonal watercourses and the arid environment dictated the placement of small-scale improvements and access points across the reservation.
