2010 Map of Thompson Mesa

About this map

Blanco Mesa and Thompson Mesa dominate this high-desert landscape in the Eastern Navajo Agency during the early 21st century. The map reveals a network of industrial and rural transit routes, including El Paso Rd and County Rd-7575, which navigate the complex system of escarpments and drainages. The topography is defined by sharp elevation changes at Dufers Point and the deep incisions of Selph Canyon and Heifer Canyon. In the southwest, the wide bed of Blanco Wash cuts through the terrain, illustrating the seasonal drainage patterns of this arid region. This survey serves as a clear record of the spatial relationship between the sprawling mesa tops like Crow Mesa and the infrastructure required to access these traditional lands.
