Palmer Mesa defines this high desert landscape within the Shiprock Agency region of San Juan County. This modern survey illustrates a complex network of geological formations and seasonal drainages, where ancient features like Monument Rocks stand alongside significant landmarks such as Popping Rock and Thieving Rock. The drainage patterns are clearly delineated, showing how Salt Cr Wash and its various tributaries, including Burnt Squash Draw and Sunshine Spring Draw, have etched the terrain.
