2022 Map of Narraguinnep Mountain

About this map

The San Juan National Forest defines the character of this landscape in southwestern Colorado, where the high mesa country meets complex drainage systems. A dense network of man-made water features, including Near Draw Reservoir, Brumley Reservoir, and Koppenhafer Reservoir, speaks to the critical importance of water management for local agriculture and livestock in this arid environment. The map details the border between Dolores County and Montezuma County, illustrating how political boundaries overlay the natural topography of Narraguinnep Mtn and Narraguinnep Canyon. Named landmarks such as Glade Ranch and several springs, including Indian Spring, indicate established human presence and reliance on specific water sources. The terrain is marked by a series of distinct ridges and draws, with Bench Mark Mtn and Elston Mtn serving as prominent elevations overlooking a system of access roads like Glade Road and Dry Lake Cutoff.
