1972 Map of Steamboat Rock NE

About this map

Balakai Mesa dominates the western portion of this 1970s landscape, providing a sharp topographic contrast to the drainage basins of the Navajo Indian Reservation to the east. The land is defined by arroyos and watercourses, including Tse Ba Ni Zi Ni Wash and Balakai Wash, which carve through the high desert floor. The distribution of landmarks is sparse, highlighting the isolation of the region and the importance of specific infrastructure like the Red Hill Windmill near Red Hill.
