1966 Map of Two Grey Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the prominent Grey Mesa and the distinct formation of Two Grey Hills in the mid-1960s. This desert environment is etched with a network of seasonal drainages, including Two Grey Hills Wash, Captain Tom Wash, and Tunisa Wash, which converge as they flow across the arid terrain. Human presence is indicated by a scattered network of unimproved roads and several water sources vital for life in this part of San Juan County, such as Mormon Spring and a lonely Well located on the flats below the mesa. A small Cem is marked near the northwestern corner, serving as a quiet genealogical marker for the local community. The mapping reveals a land of high plateaus and alluvial washes where the survival of early inhabitants relied on these few named springs and watercourses.
