1989 Map of White Mesa Village SE

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the high, flat expanses of White Mesa and the sheltering contours of White Mesa Valley. This 1989 provisional map, based on fieldwork from the mid-1980s, documents a desert environment where water and infrastructure are central to survival and community life. The Red Mesa Chapter House stands as a primary landmark, while the presence of a Flowing Well, a Water Tank, and multiple Pumping Sta locations highlights the critical importance of groundwater management in this arid territory. The terrain is marked by significant natural drainages like Salt Water Creek and the deep cuts of Creek Canyon, shadowed by Lone Mountain. Industrial markers, such as a long-distance Pipeline and several scattered Drill Hole sites, reflect the ongoing search for resources beneath the mesa floor during the late 20th century.
