1968 Map of Yucca Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Navajo Hopi Joint Use Area dominates this high-altitude desert terrain in Navajo County, mapped by the Geological Survey during the late 1960s. The landscape is defined by a complex system of seasonal drainages, including the prominent Moenkopi Wash and Dinnebito Wash, which carve through deep depressions like Reed Valley and White House Valley. These washes represent the critical water-management geography of the region, where life centers on isolated resources such as Reed Well and the scattered Corrals found near Yucca Flat. In the south, the distinctive Yucca Hill rises as a landmark overlooking Resting Cattle Valley. This survey captures the topographical character of the land before significant modern development, emphasizing the natural divisions of the Navajo Indian Reservation Boundary and the shared administrative zones that defined local land use in this era.
