2023 Map of Ray Mesa

About this map

The Manti-La Sal National Forest dominates the western portion of this 2023 survey, where high plateau terrain drops sharply into a complex system of drainage canyons. This arid borderland where Utah meets Colorado is defined by prominent topographical landmarks like Hideout Mesa and Ray Mesa, which serve as natural anchors for the surrounding landscape. The drainage patterns of La Sal Creek and Lion Creek flow eastward across the state line, carving deep relief into the mesas. Local connectivity is maintained through a network of forest and county routes including Buckeye Rd and Woodland Rd, while primitive paths like the Lower Two-Mile Trl and Trinity Canyon Trl penetrate the more difficult terrain. This map provides a detailed view of the remote canyon country south of the La Sal Mountains, illustrating the intersection of national forest management and the high-desert border geography.
