1969 Map of Wupatki NE

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Little Colorado River carves a central path through this landscape, separating the volcanic formations of Black Point and White Mesa from the expanse of the Navajo Indian Reservation. This 1969 survey documents a sparsely populated but historically significant corridor, featuring the northern boundaries of Wupatki National Monument where several Ruins are preserved. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevations like Baah Kokaa Ridge and the prominent cliffs of Ward Terrace. Evidence of land use is found in scattered mines and water management features such as Yellow Spring, Ely Tank, and a Corral. Seasonal drainages including Tohachi Wash and Jackrabbit Wash trace the complex topography of the high desert plateau, while a network of Jeep Trails provides the primary access through the reservation land east of the river.
