1972 Map of Burns South

About this map

The Colorado River carves a deep canyon through this portion of Eagle County, dictated by the massive uplift of Derby Mesa and Greenhorn Mountain. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks follow the tight river corridor, passing through the small community of Burns and the rail-point at Derby Junction. This landscape is defined by its steep drainage systems, where seasonal waters flow from the high country through Bull Gulch and Red Dirt Creek to meet the main river channel.
