2023 Map of Johnson Park

About this map

Johnson Mesa dominates the northeastern corner of this landscape, a prominent high-plateau feature characteristic of the Colfax County topography. The terrain is defined by a series of distinct basalt-capped tables, including Wilson Mesa, Flatiron Mesa, and Juan Torres Mesa, which separate deep drainages such as Taylor Canyon and Dry Canyon. This modern survey illustrates how water management and natural hydrology interact on the high plains, centered on the Throttle Reservoir and the winding course of Una de Gato Creek. In the southern reaches, the land drops toward the drainage of Little Water Creek and Green Mountain Arroyo, where Troyburg Mesa and the Haycock Buttes stand as isolated landmarks. The map records a sparsely settled ranching region where county roads like Co RD A-40 and Co RD A-29 provide the primary access through the broken rimrock and expansive parklands like Johnson Park.
