1987 Map of Burnt Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Emigrant Trail (Pack) cuts across this high desert landscape, marking a historical corridor of movement through the canyon country of San Juan County. This 1987 provisional survey shows the area as it appeared in the early 1980s, defined by the deep incisions of Moqui Canyon and Mikes Canyon into the plateau. The drainage of Castle Creek flows toward the southwest, while local water sources like Burnt Spring and various unnamed tanks provide critical points in the arid terrain. Human activity is sparse, indicated primarily by a Gravel Pit and a network of 4WD tracks that follow the natural contours of the mesas. The map captures the complex topography between the North Gulch and prominent high points such as Moki 5934, providing a detailed view of the land before modern recreational shifts altered the usage of these remote backcountry routes.
