2022 Map of Jack Springs

About this map

Dinosaur National Monument occupies the southwestern corner of this Colorado landscape, where the high elevations of Douglas Mountain overlook the Zenobia Basin. The topography is defined by a network of drainage systems including Jack Springs Draw, Conway Draw, and Douglas Draw, which channel seasonal runoff toward larger watercourses like Vermillion Cr. This arid region relies on vital water sources such as the namesake Jack Springs and Dripping Rock Spring. While modern infrastructure is represented by the Lodore Entrance Road and various county routes like Co RD 34, the area remains dominated by open land management and significant relief, with Cottonwood Cr cutting through the southern slopes of the mountain range.
