Newspaper Rock stands as a prominent cultural landmark on the eastern edge of this landscape, situated near the banks of Indian Creek. This 2023 survey of the Manti-La Sal National Forest documents a network of trails and access routes through the high-elevation terrain of the Abajo Mountains, including the Shay Mountain Trail (098) and the West Shay Mine (437) Trl. The map illustrates a dramatic geography defined by rising landforms like Shay Mtn and Shay Mesa, which transition into the flat-topped Bridger Jack Mesa to the north.
