About this map

Citadel Plateau and the surrounding Danforth Hills define the high-desert geography of this portion of Moffat County. The landscape is carved by a complex drainage network, where Bob Hughes Cr and Pine Tree Gulch cut through the upland terrain. Prominent elevations such as Wolf Mtn and Escarpment Peak provide significant navigational landmarks across the plateau.

Evidence of human movement and infrastructure is centered on the local road system, including Co RD 23 and Co RD 57, which follow the natural contours of the gulches. Smaller topographical features like Steamboat Rock and the drainage of Deep Channel Cr illustrate the erosion patterns typical of this region. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System, showing the Township and Range boundaries such as t4n r96w that organize this rural landscape.
