2023 Map of La Sal West

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

La Sal serves as the primary hub in this corner of San Juan County, where high-desert ranching and water management define the landscape. The reliance on seasonal water is evident in a string of infrastructure including Upper Bankhead Reservoir, Lower Bankhead Reservoir, and the Number Two Reservoir. This modern survey reveals a complex network of ranching and mining roads, such as Oliver Mine Rd and Rio Algom Shaft Rd, which point to the area’s industrial history and the extraction of uranium and potash. To the north, the terrain rises into the Manti-La Sal National Forest and the peaks of the La Sal Mountains, while prominent natural features like Wilson Arch and Cottonwood Canyon mark the more arid western stretches. Genealogists will find the La Sal Cem positioned near the town, anchoring the history of the families that settled this high-altitude valley.
