1955 Map of Zith-Tusayan Butte 2 SE

About this map

The Defiance Plateau dominates this mid-century survey of the Navajo Indian Reservation in Apache County. This land is characterized by a high-altitude drainage network where seasonal waters carve through the landscape, creating distinct features such as Ruin Wash, Lone Tule Wash, and Sage House Wash. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Black Creek and Kin-li-chee Creek converge, providing a more permanent water source in an otherwise arid region. The presence of a Well and a Spring along these drainage lines highlights the vital importance of groundwater for survival on the reservation.
