About this map

Upper Forest Mountain anchors the high ground of this landscape within the Chinle Agency, overlooking a network of seasonal watercourses and springs. The drainage patterns are defined by the winding course of Nazlini Creek and the namesake White Rock Wash, which carve through the high desert terrain. These water sources have long been vital to the region's geography, evidenced by named points such as Honeymoon Spring, White Rock Spring, and Tsegito Spring.

Transportation throughout this part of Apache County is primarily facilitated by a series of tribal routes, including Indian Rte 7 and Indian Rte 28. These roads trace the natural contours of the land, connecting isolated high points and crossing northern washes like Tse Deeshzhaai Wash. The map illustrates a modern view of a traditional landscape where natural features and essential road networks remain the primary landmarks.
