2023 Map of Burnt Cabin Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The High Plateau along the Utah Colorado border is defined by a network of steep-walled drainages and high mesa settlements. This modern survey of the region surrounding Cedar Point and Bug Point reveals a landscape carved by Monument Creek and Burnt Cabin Creek, where water sources like Oak Spring and Bug Spring were historically vital for local ranching. The presence of Cedar Point Cem and Urado Cem provides key reference points for genealogical researchers tracking families who established themselves in these high-elevation outposts. Cultural signatures such as Semadini, Carhart, and Wrights reflect the localized patterns of land ownership and naming that persist in this remote corner of San Juan and Dolores Counties. The terrain is characterized by dramatic elevation shifts into Cottonwood Canyon and Lake Canyon, illustrating the topographic challenges faced by early residents navigating between the high flats and the deep canyon floors.
