2023 Map of Moss Back Butte

About this map

Kachina Bridge and Owachomo Bridge stand as prominent geological landmarks within this high-desert landscape, where deep incisions like White Canyon and Tuwa Canyon reveal a complex drainage system feeding into White Canyon Creek. The terrain is characterized by massive formations such as The Needle and The Windgate, alongside the eponymous Moss Back Butte. Human passage through this isolated region is marked by primitive routes like Radium King Rd and Guich Creek Rd, as well as specialized paths including the Kachina Trl and Canyon Trl. To the south, the Red House Cliffs and Step Point define the dramatic verticality of the San Juan County topography, while landmarks like The Shoe and Indian Foot provide distinct navigational reference points in an area largely defined by its natural spires and plateaus.
