About this map

The San Juan National Forest defines the western edge of this Colorado landscape, where rugged terrain is marked by a series of significant drainages and high points. The settlements of Dyke, Nutria, and Lonetree are established along the transition from the forest to the high-elevation valleys. Waterways like Stollsteimer Cr and Cat Cr carve through the geography, creating prominent features such as Hall Canyon, Hurt Canyon, and Lonetree Canyon.

Transport and land use patterns are shaped by these natural contours, with roads like San Juan St and Cat Creek Rd following the logical paths through the hills. To the south, the terrain descends toward West Kearns Canyon and Kearns Canyon near the community of Kearns. The map also identifies local landmarks like Haystack Mtn and Broken Off Point, which serve as significant visual anchors for researchers and local historians studying the Archuleta County backcountry.
