About this map

The Green River carves through the landscape of the Colorado Plateau, where the borders of Emery Co and Grand Co meet along the river's winding course. This arid region is defined by complex drainage systems like Salt Wash, White Wash, and Red Wash, which feed into the primary river corridor. To the west, the San Rafael River flows through the broad San Rafael Valley, illustrating the classic desert hydrology of eastern Utah.

Evidence of historical and modern land use is visible in the network of named routes, including Ruby Ranch Rd and the Ten Mile Wash to Ruby Rnch trail. These paths connect prominent landmarks such as the distinctive Dellenbaugh Butte and the high vantage of Tenmile Point. The map also identifies specialized recreational and survey corridors like Mary's Trl, Dee Flat Trl, and the Kid's Loop East Trl, reflecting the area's transition into a destination for backcountry exploration.
