1979 Map of Mud Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Yucca House Nat Mon anchor the southern edge of this landscape, preserving an ancient settlement site within the Montezuma Valley. Large portions of the terrain are defined by the Ute Mountain Indian Reservation, where the topography shifts from the flats of the valley floor to the high ground of Aztec Divide. The map details the drainage systems of McElmo Creek and Mud Creek, showing how these watercourses have carved out deep recesses such as McElmo Canyon and Goodman Canyon. Local history is noted at the Majors Cem and Mud Spring, while 20th-century developments like the County Airport and several Gravel Pits indicate the modern economic use of the valley. A network of primitive ways, including a Jeep Trail in the northern mesas, highlights the remote nature of the canyons.
