About this map

Indian Cr winds through this high-desert landscape on the border of McKinley and San Juan Counties, providing a central drainage for the arid terrain. The geography is defined by prominent landmarks such as White Rock and Red Hill, which rise above the surrounding plateaus. This 2020 map documents a critical network of tribal and local infrastructure, where Bureau of Indian Affairs routes like Indian Svc Rte 7060 and Indian Svc Rte 108 intersect with county roads.

The presence of these Service Routes suggests the importance of connectivity for the surrounding communities within the Fort Defiance Agency. Detailed contour work highlights the intricate arroyo systems feeding into the main creek, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped this portion of the Navajo Nation. Local travelers and historians can trace the paths of Co Rd 8890 and Indian Svc Rte 9652 as they navigate the ridges and washes of this remote corner of New Mexico.
