About this map

Alkali Point dominates the central landscape of this San Juan County quadrangle, forming a high, dissected plateau that separates numerous drainage systems. To the west, the broad expanse of Mustang Mesa provides a stark contrast to the intricate network of canyons that carve through the sedimentary layers. This 1985 provisional survey captures a wilderness landscape defined by water and wind, where Alkali Canyon and Bradford Canyon converge amidst a labyrinth of sandstone features. On the eastern edge, Montezuma Creek flows through a deep corridor, joined by tributaries such as Horse Canyon and Deadman Canyon. The map reveals a high-desert environment with localized features like Bullpen Swale and Cave Canyon, illustrating the complex topography of southeastern Utah before significant modern development altered these traditional grazing and resource areas.
