1990 Map of Wepo Village

About this map

The Hopi Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the towering prominence of First Mesa and the intricate drainage network of Wepo Wash. This 1990 survey captures a region where water management and traditional settlement patterns are central to the terrain. Near the cluster of Wepo Village, numerous water sources including Wepo Spring, Sand Hill Spring, and Donkey Spring appear alongside several corrals, reflecting the pastoral and residential life of the era. The presence of a local Cemetery and a Historical Monument near the southern boundary provides important touchstones for genealogical and local history research. Throughout the region, man-made Check Dams and a Flowing Well indicate a sustained effort to manage the arid environment, while the shifting Sand Hills and deep cuts of One Cottonwood Canyon define the physical geography.
