2010 Map of West of La Vida Mission

About this map

Indian Creek meanders through this high desert region in the early twenty-first century, serving as a primary drainage for the area west of the La Vida Mission. The landscape is marked by prominent natural landmarks such as White Rock and Red Hill, which stand as steady reference points in this arid terrain. A sparse but significant network of bureaucratic infrastructure is visible through the various designated roads, including Indian Service Route 7080 and Indian Service Route 108. These routes, established by the Fort Defiance Agency, reflect the managed transportation systems of the Navajo Nation. This topographical record focuses on the relationship between water courses and the high-elevation geological features that define the San Juan Basin, illustrating how modern service roads provide access to this open landscape.
