About this map

Pinehill stands as the primary hub of activity in this high-desert landscape, situated along the southern edge of the survey area. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent mesas and deep drainages, including Wild Sheep Mesa and the striking rock formations of Los Gigantes. Water, though seasonal, dictates the geography of the region, as evidenced by the basin of Togeye Lake and the Rio Pescado which flows through the central portion of the quadrangle.

A complex network of tribal and local roads, such as Ice Caves Rd and Togeye Lake Rd, connects remote homesteads across the McKinley County and Cibola County border. The map details numerous named draws like Crockett Draw and White Horse Draw, which serve as critical landmarks for navigation and land use in this arid environment. The presence of the Togeye Flats further illustrates the varied topography, from flat plains to the steep walls of Togeye Canyon.
