2018 Map of Toh Ne Zhonnie Spring

About this map

Toh Ne Zhonnie Spring sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape within the Chinle Agency, where a network of ephemeral washes and deeply carved valleys define the geography. The drainage pattern is led by Oraibi Wash and Toh Ne Zhonnie Wash, carving through distinct landforms like Two Red Peaks Valley and Many Greasewood Valley. This area is characterized by its isolation and the naming of specific natural features that have likely served as vital landmarks for generations. Navigation through this remote terrain is facilitated by several tribal routes, including Indian Rte 8033 and Indian Rte 8066, which trace the contours of the valleys. Other notable water sources like Cliff Spring and various named washes, such as Yellow Jacket Wash and Forest Lake Wash, highlight the critical importance of water locations in this arid Navajo County environment.
