1966 Map of Table Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the striking silhouette of Table Mesa and the prominent heights of Cathedral Cliff and Barber Peak. This mid-century survey reveals an industrial layer superimposed on the desert terrain, centered around the Oil Field and a network of supporting infrastructure. Traces of resource extraction are visible throughout the quadrangle, from several noted Mines and a Quarry to a Pumping Sta and various Drill Holes. Natural drainage patterns like Dead Mans Wash and Coal Creek underscore the arid environment, while the presence of a Radio Tower and an extensive Pipeline system highlight the modern development of the San Juan Basin during this era. The map records a moment of transition where traditional land use meets industrial energy expansion.
