1966 Map of Tanner Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Ute Mountain Indian Reservation landscape is defined by its deep canyons and elevated plateaus in the mid-1960s. Archaeological and commercial history intersect here, notably at the Mancos River Trading Post situated along the Mancos River. The map highlights numerous sites of Indian Ruins tucked into the complex topography of Mancos Canyon and the flanks of Cowboy Mesa, underscoring the long-standing human presence in this arid environment. Resource extraction is evident through scattered Oil Wells and a Drill Hole located near Tanner Mesa. Water management in this high-desert terrain is represented by the Tanner Reservoir and isolated sources like Wing Spring. Distinctive geological features such as Chimney Rock and its associated Chimney Rock Draw provide essential navigation landmarks across the broken terrain.
