About this map

Dugout Ranch serves as a primary human landmark in this high-desert landscape of San Juan County, where deep drainages like Indian Creek and North Cottonwood Creek carve through the sandstone. The terrain is defined by massive plateau features such as Harts Point and the isolated formation known as The Island. Evidence of geological exploration and resource extraction is scattered across the topography, particularly in the western sections where Mine Shafts and multiple Adits appear near the winding path of Lavender Creek. The network of 4wd tracks suggests a region where movement follows the natural contours of the canyon floors and mesa tops. Surveyors in the 1980s documented a complex system of tributary canyons, including Donnelly Canyon and Shay Canyon, which funnel toward the major creek beds that dominate the local drainage pattern.
