1972 Map of Satan Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Satan Butte rises as the dominant landform in this high-desert region of Navajo County, which was surveyed during the early 1970s. The landscape within the Navajo Indian Reservation is defined by the winding course of Steamboat Wash and expansive fields of Sand Dunes to the north and east. A distinct Quarry is located on the southeastern flank of the butte, indicating localized resource extraction. The map also records the Navajo-Hopi Joint Use Area Boundary Indian Reservation Boundary, a significant administrative marker of the era's land management and jurisdictional divisions. Infrastructure is limited to unimproved roads and a utility Pipeline that cuts across the arid terrain, illustrating the remote and largely undeveloped character of the territory at the time of the survey.
