1968 Map of Sweathouse Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Sweathouse Peak stands as a prominent landmark in this 1968 survey of the Navajo Indian Reservation in Apache County. The terrain is defined by a sharp geological transition, where the high wooded elevations of Yale Point and Tse Da Ahoodzo Peak drop dramatically toward the arid expanse of Mesa Carson. This landscape is carved by numerous drainages, including Wind Rock Valley and Cottonwood Canyon, which descend from the western heights. The presence of a Radio Tower and various Mine and Prospect symbols suggests a remote but active landscape of communication and resource exploration. Vital water sources are scattered throughout the canyons and flats, ranging from the high-elevation Waterfall Spring to the lower Sweetwater Spring and Net Springs on the mesa's edge. A network of primitive transport is visible via the Pack Trail winding through Sagebrush Canyon, illustrating how the land was navigated before modern infrastructure.
