1970 Map of White Mesa Arch

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

White Mesa Arch stands as a prominent natural landmark within the Navajo Indian Reservation, anchoring this 1970 survey of the northern Arizona high desert. The map captures a landscape shaped by both geologic erosion and human infrastructure, from the broad Red Lake Valley to the elevations of the Shonto Plateau. Evidence of industrial and agricultural activity is present through labels for Mining and a Corral, alongside the structural trace of a Railroad Grade cutting across the southwestern terrain. Local hydrology is defined by seasonal drainages like Sour Water Wash and Begashibito Wash, which inform the placement of localized water sources such as Tacheene Well. The inclusion of the Old Indian Reservation Boundary provides essential context for land management and jurisdictional history in Coconino County.
