1966 Map of Yellow Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Navajo Indian Reservation landscape is defined by its arid drainage networks and subtle topographic rises as documented in the mid-1960s and updated via 1979 photorevision. Two prominent hydrological systems, Dead Mans Wash and Pajarito Creek, carve through the terrain, illustrating the critical role of seasonal water flow in this high-desert environment. The presence of Big Gap Reservoir and multiple instances of Flowing Well indicate managed water resources essential for the area's pastoral and ranching activities, further evidenced by a named Corral near the northern boundary.
