2011 Map of Mikes Mesa
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Lake Powell dominates the southern portion of this high-desert landscape, where the waters of the impounded San Juan River reach into deep, branching drainages like Mikes Canyon and Rockhouse Gulch. The terrain is characterized by massive formations such as Mikes Mesa and the Clay Hills, which rise sharply from the water's edge. This 2011 survey documents a remote junction of land and water, most notably at Clay Hills Crossing, where Whirlwind Crossing Rd meets the river's path. Further north, the landscape is etched by the East Fork Mikes Canyon and Castle Creek, while the presence of Rock Spring suggests the vital importance of isolated water sources in this arid region of San Juan County.
