About this map

Axial Basin forms the central geographic feature of this northwestern Colorado landscape, where a dense network of canyons and gulches carves through the high desert. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, notably at the distinctive peak of Maggies Nipple, which overlooks a series of long drainages including Easton Gulch and Maudlin Gulch.

Remote roads like Co RD 55 and Co RD 32 provide the primary access through this complex topography, following the natural contours of features such as Ben Morgan Canyon and Morgan Gulch. The map reveals a land structured by water and geology, from the deep incisions of Red Littleton Canyon to the smaller tributaries like Chokecherry Gulch, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns of the Moffat County backcountry.
