About this map

Teec Nos Pos serves as a central hub in this high-desert landscape near the Four Corners, where the convergence of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah defines the regional geography. The settlement is positioned at the junction of several critical thoroughfares, including Indian Service Route 5113 and Bia 5059, which facilitate travel through the vast drainage basins of the Tohache Wash and Salt Wash. To the south, the terrain rises into the Corrizo Mountains, while the San Juan River brushes the northern edge of the quadrangle.

Transportation and infrastructure are prominent themes, evidenced by the Teec Nos Pos Landing Strip and a dense network of tribal and county roads such as Apache Co Road 475. The naming conventions of local features, including Teec Nos Pos Canyon and Shoe Game Wash, reflect the deep cultural heritage of the Shiprock Agency. This map provides a clear record of the intersection between modern transit needs and the natural arroyo systems that dictate the movement of water and people across the reservation.
