1966 Map of Ship Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Ship Rock towers over the high desert floor of the Navajo Indian Reservation in this detailed topography. The landscape is defined by its distinct geology, most notably the towering volcanic neck and the long, linear Dike stretching southward from its base. This era captures the industrial footprint of the San Juan Basin, where energy extraction is evident across the terrain. Extensive infrastructure for the Rattlesnake Oil Field and the Shiprock Gallup Oil Field dominates the northeast, marked by a network of unimproved roads, a Pipeline, and numerous sites labeled Well or Drill Hole. Drainage patterns like Shiprock Wash and Rattlesnake Wash cut through the arid soil, while the Red Rock Highway provides the primary transit corridor through this remote corner of San Juan County.
