About this map

The Manti La Sal National Forest dominates this section of San Juan County, Utah, where high-elevation drainage systems and managed water resources define the land use. The Monticello Ranger District oversees a landscape carved by Harts Draw and Clay Draw, with prominent features like Peters Point and the Abajo Mountains rising above the surrounding plateaus.

Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the Aqueduct infrastructure and several high-country basins including Monticello Lake, Gordon Reservoir, and Race Track Reservoir. For local history and recreation, the Harts Draw-Canyonlands Overlook provides a specific point of orientation, while the presence of a Gravel Pit indicates local material extraction near the drainage of Bankhead Creek.
