About this map

Sams Mesa and the surrounding high desert terrain define this late 20th-century survey along the border of Wayne and Garfield Counties. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of deep drainage systems, most notably Twin Corral Box Canyon and the expansive Box Canyon to the south. A prominent landmark, The Pinnacle, stands as a geographic anchor amidst the mesas and ridges. This provisional edition, based on 1981 aerial photography, details a remote region where water sources like Dripping Spring and Two Pipe Spring were critical for cattle ranching or transit through the high Big Ridge. The presence of labels like Corral and Flats underscores the historical use of this territory for grazing, while the lack of established towns highlights the area's isolation within the canyon country.
