2021 Map of Tovar Mesa West

About this map

Tovar Mesa dominates the eastern portion of this high desert landscape in Navajo County, characterized by the dramatic relief of Elbow Point. The intermittent drainage of Polacca Wash cuts through the southwestern corner, reflecting the seasonal hydrology of the region. The map reveals a remote environment structured by the Public Land Survey System, with township and range lines like t26n r15e and t25n r16e organizing the vast open spaces. Transportation is limited to established routes such as Indian Rte 18 and Indian Rte 11, which provide the primary access through this sparsely populated terrain. The topographic detail highlights the intricate contouring of mesa edges and dry washes, typical of the arid geography found within this part of the Southwest.
