The Continental Divide Trail crosses along the low saddle to the mesa, with a seasonal stream running off to the east to end up in the Atlantic, and a small seasonal stream going west toward the Pacific. The forest service road is a potential bailout or resupply option if you need to call in emergency support.

Two USFS roads intersect at this point. There are seasonal streams nearby and room at the intersection to leave your car.
