About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape in the mid-1950s centers on the small settlement of Leupp, located near a prominent bend in the Little Colorado River. This territory is defined by the convergence of desert drainage systems, including Oraibi Wash and the winding Diablo Canyon Wash. At this time, the Sunrise Trading Post served as a key outpost for local commerce and navigation, situated just north of the Sunrise Airfield. A network of unpaved tracks and the Leupp-Oraibi Road provided the primary means of transit across the arid terrain, while a series of levees and reservoirs along the river suggest an early infrastructure designed to manage seasonal water flow. The presence of a significant pipeline cutting across the reservation highlights the intersection of traditional land use and mid-century industrial utility.
