About this map

Jacobs Chair stands as a prominent landmark in this desert landscape of San Juan County, Utah, where a network of steep drainages and mesas defines the terrain. The drainage of White Canyon Cr cuts a significant path through the region, flanked by features like Gravel Canyon and Cowboy Canyon. In the southern portion of the sheet, the landscape centers on Fry Canyon, a location marked by localized landmarks such as Fry Canyon Field and Fry Point.

Transport through this isolated country is primarily facilitated by State Route 95, which connects the canyon systems to the surrounding plateau. Local roads like Co RD 227a and Fry Canyon Ruins Rd suggest historical or recreational access points within the deep mesa country. Notable elevations include Moss Back and Found Mesa, while water sources like Rock Spring indicate the critical role of sparse hydrology in this arid environment.
