2001 Map of Mount Linnaeus

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

The Abajo Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape within the Manti-La Sal National Forest, where steep canyons and high ridges converge at Mount Linnaeus. The terrain is marked by a network of seasonal water sources and isolated human outposts, including Bayles Ranch and several high-country shelters like Blue Creek Cabin and Duckett Cabin. A complex drainage system defines the local geography, with Deep Canyon and Mule Canyon carving through the plateau toward the south, while the The Causeway provides a distinct geographic spine between the canyons. Water management is evident in the presence of the Blue Creek Reservoir and the Dry Wash Reservoir, likely serving livestock or forest management in this arid environment. The naming of landmarks like Skull and Crossbones and Cliff Dwellers Pasture hints at the local lore and archaeological depth of this section of San Juan County.
