2010 Map of Sallies Spring

About this map

The San Juan River carves a winding path across this landscape, serving as the primary hydrological feature where it meets tributaries like the Mancos River and Salt Wash. This region near the border of New Mexico and Colorado is defined by its drainage systems, including the long reaches of Shoe Game Wash and Beclabito Wash. A network of utility and administrative roads, such as Indian Service Route 5029 and Pipe Line Rd, provides the essential infrastructure through the open country. To the southeast, the presence of an Area Silt Dam indicates active land management efforts to control sediment flow in an area marked by Rough Terrain. The map reveals a land structured by water rights and access, where seasonal washes like Red Wash dictate the movement and settlement patterns in this part of the Shiprock Agency.
