1955 Map of Zith-Tusayan Butte 2 NE

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Defiance Plateau dominates this mid-century topographic study, showing a deeply incised landscape within the Indian Reservation. The map captures the northeastern corner of the Canyon De Chelly National Monument, where the boundary cuts across high mesas and steep drainage systems. Water sources are critical markers in this arid environment, with labels identifying specific locations like Segetoa Spring and the prominent Fluted Rock. The drainage pattern is defined by the winding course of Nazlini Wash and Lone Tule Wash, which have carved intricate contours into the plateau. This preliminary edition provides a precise look at the unimproved roads and high-elevation points such as Summit before later developments in the region.
