2020 Map of Horsehead Point

About this map

Montezuma Canyon defines the Western portion of this San Juan County landscape, where the perennial waters of Montezuma Cr have carved deeply through the plateau. High points like Horsehead Point and Pearson Point provide natural overlooks above the winding drainage networks of Horsehead Canyon and Bigwater Canyon. The map reveals a high-desert environment utilized for ranching and access, indicated by the network of corridors like Cactus Park Rd and the presence of Pickett Corral Canyon. In the southern reaches, more distinct formations emerge at Table Top and within Monument Canyon, where Monument Cr marks the terrain. The eastern edge is dominated by the branching systems of Coal Bed Canyon and the East Fork Coal Bed Canyon, showing the complex erosion patterns characteristic of this part of the Colorado Plateau.
