2016 Map of Little Cone

About this map

Sawpit sits at the northern edge of this high-altitude landscape, tucked along the San Miguel River where the river valley cuts through the surrounding plateaus. The topography is dominated by massive elevated features including Specie Mesa, Beaver Mesa, and Wilson Mesa, all of which transition into the dense woods of the Uncompahgre National Forest. Significant peaks like Little Cone and Flat Top Peak anchor the central and southern sections, while the steep descent into Specie Creek Canyon demonstrates the area's dramatic verticality.
