2019 Map of Sentinel Peak SE

About this map

The Mancos River flows across this corner of Montezuma County, carving a distinct corridor through the arid plateau. This 2019 survey documents a landscape defined by an extensive network of ephemeral drainages, including Navajo Wash, Aztec Wash, and Cowboy Wash, which demonstrate the natural irrigation and erosion patterns of the region. The map reveals the infrastructure of the Ute Mountain Ute Reservation, where traditional land use meets modern transportation. Tribal routes such as Indian Rte 238 and Indian Rte 232 provide access to the interior, while Ute Farm Rd indicates the agricultural activity occurring near the river. Significant elevation changes are marked by Tanner Canyon, showing the transition from open range to more complex terrain as the land descends toward the river valley.
