2011 Map of Mancos Mesa
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Mancos Mesa dominates this high-altitude landscape in San Juan County, Utah, where survival and movement are dictated by the presence of scattered water sources. This 2011 survey details a region characterized by massive geological formations like Jacobs Rock and the deep incision of Johnny Coldwater Canyon. The distribution of named water points, including Johnny Coldwater Spring and the curious Tator Hole, suggests a history of cattle ranching or seasonal traversal in an otherwise arid environment. Other vital reliable water spots such as Cow Spring, Secret Spring, and Harrison Spring appear as singular points of interest within the vast, plateaued terrain, reflecting the sparse human footprint in this part of the Colorado Plateau.
