About this map

Navajo Canyon carves a deep, winding course through this high desert terrain in Coconino County, where the erosion of sandstone has created distinct landmarks. The northern reaches of the quadrangle are defined by the Navajo Cr drainage and the presence of Fernholes Natural Bridge, a rare geological formation noted near the canyon rim. To the south, the landscape rises toward high plateau features such as Gray Mesa and the prominent Tse Esgizii formation.

The map records several culturally and geographically specific identifiers, including Tsai Skizzi Rock and the curiously named Pile of Sticks. Modern infrastructure is minimal in this environment, represented primarily by the lone corridor of Bia-6330 cutting across the southeastern corner. This survey provides a precise look at the land's relief, showing the relationship between isolated monoliths like High Point Rock and the drainage networks that continue to shape the region.
