About this map

The San Juan River and Chaco River converge in this high-desert landscape, dominated by the prominent ridge of The Hogback. The 2010 environment is defined by a sophisticated water management network, featuring the Hogback Canal and the Fruitland Irrigation Canal which parallel the riverbanks. These systems support the surrounding agriculture and industry, while the Hogback Trading Post serves as a localized hub near the northern reach of the map.

Energy and resource extraction are evident through the presence of the Hogback Field and several extraction sites including Wheller Pit and Borrow Pit. To the east, the Ash Pond Number Three Dam indicates the intersection of industrial runoff management with the natural drainage of the Chinde Wash. The transportation network relies heavily on tribal infrastructure, notably Indian Service Route 36 and Indian Service Route 361, connecting these disparate resource and commercial points across the arid terrain.
