2020 Map of Horn Canyon

About this map

The San Juan River valley serves as the central corridor for this 2020 topographic landscape, anchoring a string of residential developments between major regional hubs. The transition from the eastern edge of Farmington through Lee Acres to Bloomfield illustrates the modern suburbanization of San Juan County's riverfront property. While the river bottom supports these denser settlements like West Hammond, the surrounding terrain quickly shifts to the arid, dissected plateaus of the Four Corners region. To the south and east, the deeply carved drainage of Horn Canyon and Kutz Canyon define the topography, while Gallegos Spring provides a rare water point in the higher desert land. The extensive grid of local roads, such as Crouch Mesa Rd, reflects the ongoing parceling of mesa land for housing and commercial use outside the established city limits.
