2013 Map of Canyon of Lodore North

About this map

Canyon of Lodore cuts through the center of this landscape, where the Green River navigates significant whitewater obstacles like Upper Disaster Falls and Lower Disaster Falls. Within the boundaries of Dinosaur National Monument, the river is framed by dramatic elevation changes from Diamond Mountain and Offield Mountain down to the riparian zones of Browns Park and Dummy Bottom. The map documents scattered high-desert habitations and historical outposts, including Craig Place, Tittle Cabin, and Old Bassett Camp. This area of Moffat County is characterized by a network of drainage draws such as Hoy Draw and Jack Springs Draw, which feed into the main river corridor. These features, along with the Gates of Lodore, highlight the transition from open basins like Zenobia Basin into the narrow, steep-walled canyons that define the regional geography.
