About this map

Navajo Indian Reservation lands dominate this high-desert landscape in northeastern Arizona, where the confluence of several seasonal drainages defines the local geography. The settlement at Tanner Springs is positioned near the junction of Sabito Wash and Wide Ruin Wash, indicating the importance of these watercourses for habitation and travel in an arid region. The presence of Hogan, a traditional Navajo dwelling label, alongside several water sources like Clark Well, Spring, and Springs, underscores the character of pastoral life and indigenous land use during this era. In the southeastern corner, the rising elevation of Padres Mesa provides a distinct topographical boundary, while the scattered infrastructure of Water Tank sites and wells reflects the sparse but essential network required for livestock and survival on the reservation.
