Third Mesa
Settlements
1) The U.S. census map for
the area of the Third Mesa, AZ, shows the spatial context of the
Hotevilla topographic map assignment. Notice that the percentage of
Indians is only shown off the reservations. 2) Look
at a relief map [source]
that covers most of Arizona.
The
three
prominent mesas are numbered as they appear on the Hotevilla, AZ,
topographic
map, which covers only the Third Mesa. Another map shows the three
mesas clearly. 3) Now look at a simplified
contour and relief map from Hotevila to just
south of Bacabi. 4) What does a
cross section from Hotevilla to Bacabi
look like? 5) The questions on the Hotevilla Topographic
Map are based
on the map below. Click on each of the red squares to get more
information and photos. These will help you in doing this map assignment!
For an electronic version of this map, go to TopoZone.com,
which unfortunately has been bought by a company which does not provide search
functions. You have to know the location of area for which you want a small
section of the topographic map.
