2017 Map of Burnt Spring
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Red Rock Plateau dominates this landscape of the Utah high desert, where deep drainage systems like Moqui Canyon and Burnt Spring Canyon carve into the sandstone. The map reveals a land defined by water scarcity and relief, centered on reliable sources such as Burnt Spring and Red Cone Spring. The transport network is sparse, consisting primarily of the Burnt Springs Rd and Nokai Dome Rd, which follow the higher ground between canyon systems. This 2017 survey details the complex hydrology of the region, specifically where Castle Cr meets Castle Wash in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Other significant incisions into the plateau include Muleshoe Canyon and Mikes Canyon, illustrating the erosional patterns characteristic of San Juan County.
