Tséníí'tóhí (Water Within The Rocks) or "Tunnel Springs," in English is located just a little north of Fort Defiance on Navajo Route 12. The region itself is famous for an annual campmeeting held usually in the early part of July. A natural spring is found here, from which it's Navajo name is derived.
There are two Anasazi ruins located within the area. The first, called Tséníí'kin (Home Within The Rocks) located on the south side of a nearby canyon, and Tséyaaí (Underneath the Rock) located on the north side. Information gathered here is from local resident Nellie Laughlin.
