Welcome to Teesto Chapter

Our Story

When Teesto laid along the main road between Dilkon and Polacca it was known as Ha’nanee’tiin, “Road Going Past.”

When Arizona Route 87 was built in the 1960s, the community was bypassed and became much less prominent. Teesto’s unique location was the blending ground between Navajos and the Hopis to the north. Today, Teesto remains on the border between the Navajo and Hopi Reservations where the community has remained committed to the land and the people surrounding them. In the year 2015, the Chapter has been burnt down, until March 2023 the chapter has been restored.
