1986 Map of Tolani Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the complex hydrological patterns of the Oraibi Wash and Polacca Wash in the mid-1980s. Centered on the settlement of Tolani Lake, the map illustrates a desert environment where seasonal water flow dictates the geography. The confluence of these washes near the border of Coconino Co and Navajo Co highlights the importance of natural drainage in an arid region. Grounded in 1982 field checks, the topography reveals the subtle elevation changes of the high desert, including the winding path of Jadito Wash as it moves across the reservation. Infrastructure is sparse but vital, represented by the Sewage Disposal Ponds near the main settlement, reflecting the basic utility needs of this community during this era.
