2021 Map of Toh Atin Mesa West

About this map

Red Mesa stands as the primary settlement area in this high-desert landscape of Apache County along the Arizona-Utah border. The terrain is defined by the massive uplift of Toh Atin Mesa, which dominates the southern half of the quadrangle with its complex system of canyons and ridges. Drainage networks like Willow Spring Wash and Sweetwater Wash carve through the sandstone, illustrating the erosional patterns of the Four Corners region. Transport in this part of the Navajo Nation is facilitated by a network of tribal routes, including Indian Rte 5058 and Indian Rte 5089, alongside the historic Navajo Trl. The map provides a precise look at the rural infrastructure and natural landmarks, such as Gothic Cr, that anchor this remote corner of the American Southwest.
