About this map

Fortification Cr and its tributaries carve through the high-elevation landscape of Moffat County, defining the drainage patterns of this northern Colorado plateau. The map details a network of watercourses and topographical depressions, including the prominent Cottonwood Gulch and Big Gulch in the southern half of the quadrangle. These natural features are complemented by the smaller flows of Blue Gravel Cr and Little Cottonwood Cr, which together shape the undulating terrain.

Public infrastructure in this area is characterized by a sparse grid of rural routes such as Co RD 89 and Co RD 103. The land is neatly partitioned into the Public Land Survey System sections of t9n r91w, t9n r90w, t8n r91w, and t8n r90w. This arrangement reflects the typical Western pattern of resource management and rural property division, where county roads follow natural contours and section lines to connect isolated points in the basin.
