About this map

The town of Monticello anchors the southern edge of this San Juan County landscape, where the high-altitude plateau begins to break into the drainage systems of the Four Corners region. Water management is a central theme here, evidenced by the presence of Keller Reservoir and Keller Dam, which capture runoff in an arid environment defined by seasonal washes like Spring Creek and Seep Creek. The terrain is marked by distinctive geographical landmarks such as Peters Pt and Hickman Flt, while the San Juan County Airport serves as a critical infrastructure point for this corner of Utah.

Transportation corridors follow both modern and traditional lines, including the winding Edge Of The Canyon Rd and a network of rural routes such as Sturgeon Rd and Tarb Rd. These roads navigate a landscape of wide draws, notably North Long Draw, and high springs like Peters Spring, illustrating the relationship between the local geography and the settlement patterns around the San Juan County seat.
