2011 Map of Walker Creek Reservoir

About this map

Mexican Water Trading Post serves as a central point of reference in this high-desert landscape near the Arizona-Utah border. The topography is defined by the broad expanse of the Nokaito Bench to the north and the prominent Black Hill to the west. Water management and drainage are central themes of the map, with the Walker Creek Reservoir and the winding course of Walker Creek providing essential infrastructure in an arid environment. The road network is largely comprised of tribal routes such as Indian Rte-5054 and Indian Rte-505, which intersect near the trading post, illustrating the historical and modern connectivity of this region within the Navajo Nation. Seasonal watercourses like Willow Spring Wash and the presence of Willow Spring further highlight the critical locations of water sources for local inhabitants and travelers during this period.
