2016 Map of McInturf Mesa

About this map

Mcinturf Mesa dominates this Moffat County landscape, illustrating a high-altitude terrain defined by its water management and grazing potential. The northern reaches are characterized by the Routt National Forest and features like Dry Cottonwood Reservoir and Little Buck Mtn. A complex system of man-made irrigation, including Cataract Ditch, Elkhorn Ditch, and Tipton Ditch, underscores the area's agricultural heritage and the necessity of moving water across the high mesas. In the south, the landscape transitions through Cedar Hill toward Ralph White Lake, with numerous drainages such as Fortification Cr and Little Bear Cr carving deep into the earth. This survey provides a clear view of the rural road network, notably Co RD 27 and N Co RD 18, which link the various gulches and peaks of this Colorado mountain region.
