About this map

Navajo Creek winds through this arid Coconino County landscape, carving a complex drainage network into the high desert terrain. The area is defined by distinctive geologic formations, including the prominent Tsai Skizzi Rock and the elevated expanse of Gray Mesa to the south. Human activity in this portion of the Navajo Nation is centered around dispersed settlements like Tsai Skizzi and the uniquely named Pile of Sticks, which are connected by a sparse network of desert routes such as Indian Rte-6330. Notable natural landmarks like Fernholes Natural Bridge and High Point Rock serve as essential navigational markers across the plateau, illustrating the relationship between the regional topography and local place-naming traditions in the early 21st century.
