2023 Map of Table Mesa

About this map

Table Mesa dominates this section of San Juan County, rising as a prominent landform alongside the dramatic Cathedral Cliff. The landscape is defined by its drainage systems and geological features, including the winding path of Coal Creek and the notable Barber Peak. This modern survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the infrastructure of the Navajo Nation, tracing numerous service routes such as Indian Svc Rte 5017, Indian Svc Rte 5083, and Indian Svc Rte 5014. The map provides a detailed view of the high desert terrain, showing the intersection of natural hydrology like Dead Mans Wash and 12r-80 Spring with modern rural access roads like Horseshoe Dr. This documentation is essential for understanding the contemporary geographic layout and land management boundaries within these New Mexico townships.
