1985 Map of Cream Pots

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Manti-La Sal National Forest dominates this mid-1980s landscape, characterized by the intricate drainage systems and high plateau points of San Juan County. The terrain is defined by deep incisions like Hammond Canyon and Posey Canyon, which channel into the prominent Cottonwood Creek corridor. While largely a wilderness area, the map preserves evidence of human activity through a single Corral and a Pack Trail that traverses the high ground near Milk Ranch Point. Geological and local naming conventions are evident in features such as the Cream Pots and the North Fork Whiskers Draw, suggesting a history of cattle ranching or early exploration. The presence of Gravel Pits near the washes indicates localized industrial extraction in an otherwise undeveloped territory where seasonal water flow at Dry Wash and Cottonwood Wash dictates the movement of people and livestock.
