2011 Map of Tall Tree Mesa

About this map

Tall Tree Mesa defines the high ground of this landscape within the Chinle Agency, where a complex network of unpaved roads and trails connects small settlements and seasonal drainage systems. The map traces the intermittent paths of Agua Sal Creek in the north and the multi-branched Sheep Dip Creek in the south, reflecting a terrain shaped by water management and transit. Isolated community centers like Owl Nest and Bilasha appear along these routes, representing the sparse residential footprint of the area. Transportation is anchored by Indian Rte 8084, also identified as BIA Route 8084, which provides the primary access through the region's mesas and washes. This 2011 survey documents the established rural infrastructure and land use patterns common to the high desert of Apache County.
