The Uncompahgre Plateau dominates this portion of Mesa County, showing a deeply dissected landscape defined by high mesas and sheer canyon walls. Within the Uncompahgre National Forest, the terrain drops sharply from elevations like Potato Mtn into the winding depths of Blue Creek Canyon and Little Maverick Canyon. The map reveals a network of high-altitude roads and pathways, including the Franks Bench Trail and Blue Mesa Trail, which follow the contours of the land rather than a strict grid.
