1994 Map of Bull Canyon

About this map

Uranium Radium Department of Energy Reserve land dominates this high-mesa landscape, reflecting the intensive mineral extraction history along the Montrose and San Miguel County line. The map reveals an intricate network of specialized extraction sites, including the Monogram Mine, Wedding Bell Mine, and Joe Dandy Mine, all linked by precarious 4wd routes. Significant local history is preserved at the Indian Henrys Cabin and the Bachelor Camp (Site), suggesting a rugged era of prospectors and miners. The terrain is defined by dramatic plateaus such as Skein Mesa and Monogram Mesa, which drop into the carved depths of Bull Canyon. These geological features necessitated the creation of upland water sources like the Monogram Mesa Reservoir to support the industrial activity and seasonal camps found throughout the drainage systems of Wild Horse Draw and Bachelor Draw.
