2011 Map of LO 7 Hill

About this map

Sheep Creek and Flag Creek define the vertical drainage patterns of this high-altitude landscape in Rio Blanco County, where the topography rises toward the namesake summit of LO 7 Hill. The 2011 survey reveals an environment shaped by water management and transit routes through difficult terrain. Infrastructure like the Miller Creek Ditch and the Wilson Dam near Red Canyon demonstrate the modification of local waterways to support ranching or resource needs. Transportation is limited to a network of rural routes, including County Rd 13 and Gooseberry Aspen Road, which follow the natural contours of the drainages. The presence of the Hay Flat Trl suggests a transition from motorable roads to more primitive access points as the elevation shifts toward the high mesa country.
