2023 Map of Point of Rocks Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Point of Rocks Mesa dominates the central landscape of this Colfax County quadrangle, rising above a network of arroyos and canyons. To its south and east, the land is etched by Joe Cabin Arroyo, Goldmine Canyon, and Strong Canyon, reflecting a terrain where seasonal water flow has carved deep paths through the high plains. The settlement of Chico and the nearby Chico Springs represent the area's historical reliance on these scarce water sources. The map documents a sparsely populated ranching landscape where isolated landmarks like Hogback Butte and Black Hill serve as primary navigational points across the open range.
