2018 Map of Uranium Spring

About this map

The high elevation terrain of the Defiance Plateau defines this landscape in Apache County, where rugged drainage systems like the W Fork Black Cr and Black Cr carve through the sandstone. The small settlement of Oak Springs sits at the edge of Oak Spring Valley, served by the intersection of Indian Rte 12 and Co Rd C610. This modern survey illustrates the sparse but vital water infrastructure necessary for life in the high desert, including Uranium Spring and Campus Tank. The presence of Pine Springs School Rd suggests the historical importance of local education centers in connecting scattered ranching or tribal communities across the vast plateaus of the Navajo Nation boundary lands.
