The Haunted Mesa

This week I finished reading Louis L'Amour's The Haunted Mesa for the first time. It's a tale set in the Navajo Mountain area--San Juan County, Utah. I have some passing familiarity with the region and a bit of the history, particularly regarding Moab, Blanding, and Bluff. None of these places figure prominently in the story as the the canyons and mesas provide the larger-than-life setting.
