2011 Map of Tah Chee Wash

About this map

Tah Chee Wash and Sitting Giant Rock Wash carve through this landscape within the Chinle Agency, defining a region where water and relief dictate the geography. The terrain is characterized by a series of named valleys and canyons, including Warpath Valley, Black Stump Valley, and High White Valley, which suggest a long-standing vernacular geography tied to specific landmarks. Prominent high points like Wind Rock and Rain Mountain serve as natural beacons across the territory, while smaller water sources like Coal Spring and Bitter Water Wash indicate the critical importance of drainage patterns in this arid environment.
