2019 Map of Doe Canyon

About this map

The Dolores River carves a path through the landscape of the San Juan National Forest in this southwestern Colorado survey. Water management is a central theme, evidenced by an extensive network of specialized catchments such as the Doe Reseeding Reservoir, Study Plot Reservoir, and the curiously named Rabit Hash Reservoir. The terrain is defined by deep incisions like Narraguinnep Canyon and Cow Canyon, which drain into the river valley. Human infrastructure in this high-country environment is represented by the Bradfield Bridge and a series of forest roads including Co RD R and Lone Dome F. The map also captures the local industrial footprint at the Gravel Pit Reservoir and the intersection of county lines at the boundary of Dolores and Montezuma counties.
