2019 Map of Burnt Cabin Creek

About this map

The Utah-Colorado state line bisects this high-desert plateau, where the dispersed community of Cedar Point serves as a primary landmark in San Juan County. The landscape is defined by deep incisions from drainages like Monument Canyon and Coal Bed Canyon, which carve through the high terrain. Local water sources remain vital to the character of this arid region, marked by named points such as Oak Spring, Bug Spring, and the secluded Burnt Cabin Spring tucked into the headwaters of Burnt Cabin Creek. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies the Cedar Point Cemetery and Urado Cemetery, providing a spatial record of the families who settled this remote borderland. The extensive network of county roads, including State Line Road and County Road 341, reflects a rural infrastructure built around ranching and transit across the state boundary.
