About this map

The San Juan National Forest defines the landscape of this Montezuma County quadrangle, where a complex network of reservoirs and irrigation ditches supports the region's high-altitude water management. Settlements like Millwood and Porters Camp are surrounded by an intricate system of water features, including the Lumber Company Reservoir, Joe Moore Reservoir, and Summit Reservoir. The eastern edge is anchored by Mancos State Park, home to the expansive Jackson Gulch Reservoir and its associated Jackson Gulch Campground.

Evidence of historical land use and recreation is visible through a dense trail system, including the Turkey Creek Loop Trail 180 and Chicken Creek Trail 615. The rugged topography is etched with numerous named canyons and mesas, such as Haycamp Mesa, Carver Canyon, and Rock Canyon, while the Lost Canyon Ditch and Joe Moore Ditch illustrate the engineered redistribution of water across this high-country terrain.
