About this map

The Manti-La Sal National Forest occupies the northern reaches of this San Juan County landscape, where the high desert terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and geological markers. The prominent Mancos Jim Butte and Black Steer Knoll stand as significant navigational landmarks for those studying the topography of southeastern Utah during the mid-1980s. The drainage patterns on this sheet are particularly intricate, with Brushy Basin Wash and Dry Wash carving through the center, while Big Canyon and Cottonwood Wash dominate the southern and eastern margins. This 1985 survey, produced as a provisional map from 1970s field data, captures the era's land management boundaries and the natural watercourses like Johnson Creek and Westwater Creek that dictate the region's accessibility.
