1955 Map of Zith-Tusayan Butte 3 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Kinlichee and the surrounding high-plateau country of the Navajo Indian Reservation are documented here in the mid-1950s. This preliminary study shows a landscape defined by seasonal watercourses and high-elevation landforms, including the prominent Choyojdalid Hill. Life in this part of Apache County is centered on the Kinlichee School and the Cross Canyon Trading Post, the latter serving as a vital hub for local commerce and communication. Transportation is anchored by the Indian Service Road 3, which cuts east-west across the terrain. Hydrological management is evident through a series of features such as a Gaging Sta along Kinlichee Creek, as well as a Reservoir and multiple Dams designed to capture runoff in a semi-arid environment. The network of unimproved roads and trails suggests a community deeply integrated with the geography of Fish Wash and Burnt Piñon Wash.
