1985 Map of Mount Linnaeus

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Mount Linnaeus dominates this portion of the Abajo Mountains, serving as a central high point within the Manti-La Sal National Forest during the mid-1980s. The landscape is defined by a complex network of high ridges and deep drainages, notably Shay Ridge, Duckett Ridge, and the appropriately named Deep Canyon. A notable human-made feature is The Causeway, which traverses the high country between Trough Canyon and the headwaters of Tuerto Canyon. Water sources in this high-altitude environment are critical, marked by named points like Bayles Spring and Jack Spring. The map captures a transition from the wooded heights of Aspen Flat and Robertson Pasture down to the broken geography of Red Ledges and the Skull and Crossbones formation, illustrating the varied geology that defines San Juan County's high desert mountains.
