1966 Map of The Hogback North

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation is dominated by the striking north-south ridge of The Hogback, a monocline that creates a dramatic vertical spine through the San Juan Basin. In the mid-1960s, this landscape supported significant industrial activity, notably the Hogback Oil Field and extensive Gravel Pits along the northern edge. The San Juan River provides a lifeline for the area, diverted into the Fruitland Irrigation Canal to support agriculture in this arid region.
