Anvil Points stands as the defining topographic feature of this Garfield County landscape, where the high elevations of the Roan Plateau drop sharply toward the Colorado River valley. This 2022 survey captures the intricate network of drainage gulches and ridges that characterize the region, from Magpie Gulch in the northeast to the steep descent of Cottonwood Gulch. The map reveals a land utilized for both its recreational and natural resources, marked by numerous numbered trails such as 8005 Trl and historical markers like the Lindauer Cabin Trl. High-altitude flats including Glover Park, Goodrich Park, and Horse Park sit nestled between the rugged breaks. Along the southern edge, the infrastructure of Co RD 246 and a Frontage Rd follows the base of Webster Hill, illustrating the primary transportation corridor through this complex terrain.
