2023 Map of Jug Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Nutt Mountain stands as a prominent topographical feature in this section of Sierra County, anchoring a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage systems. The terrain is deeply incised by named canyons and draws, reflecting the complex hydrology of the high desert. To the north and east, the desert floor is carved by Arroyo Jaralosa, Arroyo Montoya, and Arroyo Cuervo, while the central and southern reaches are characterized by the steep-walled Jug Canyon and Outlaw Canyon. These features demonstrate the natural drainage patterns that flow toward lower elevations, providing a clear record of the region's geological structure. Evidence of human infrastructure is minimal, represented primarily by Co Rd B011, illustrating the sparse development in this area. Researchers can trace the path of seasonal watercourses like Sikes Draw and Ricketson Draw across the public land survey grid, which includes township lines for t18s r6w and t19s r5w.
