The Dolores River carves a deep, winding path through the high desert landscape of Montrose and San Miguel Counties, defining the geography of this 2013 survey. The river's dramatic oxbow at Muleshoe Bend and the presence of the Dolores River Arch highlight the erosive power that has shaped the surrounding mesas. High plateaus like Anderson Mesa and Ray Mesa rise above the drainage systems of Coyote Wash and Little Gypsum Cr, where early water management is evidenced by the Muleshoe Bend Reservoir.
