1968 Map of White Point

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The high plateau of the Navajo Indian Reservation dominates this 1968 landscape in Apache County, defined by dramatic escarpments and desert drainage systems. The survey centers on the prominent White Point Mesa and the specific landmark of White Point, where the terrain drops sharply toward the surrounding plains. The drainage patterns of the era are clearly etched through the sandy soil, most notably along Burro Wash in the west and Trading Post Wash in the central corridor. This documentation by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a sparsely populated region during the late 1960s, where human infrastructure was limited to isolated features like a Water Tank and unimproved roads, highlighting the vastness of Carson Mesa to the southeast.
