1966 Map of The Pillar 3 SE

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the winding course of Indian Creek as it moves across the high desert terrain of northwest New Mexico. Surveyed in the mid-1960s, this area reflects a sparse but functional infrastructure tailored to ranching and mineral exploration. Distinctive geological markers like White Rock and Red Hill provided essential navigational aids in a territory marked by vast open spaces and limited development. Scattered evidence of human activity is found in a solitary Mine, several wells, and a Corral, indicating the seasonal or industrial use of these lands. In the southern portion of the sheet, the presence of a Spillway and a Riser points to localized water management efforts near the border of San Juan and McKinley Counties.
