2010 Map of Lone Mountain

About this map

The Little Snake River meanders through this high-desert portion of Northwest Colorado, anchoring a landscape shaped by drainage systems and massive geological formations. In 2010, the presence of the Tisdell Ranch and Sheridan Ranch indicates the ongoing legacy of livestock operations in a region where water sources like Thompson Springs and Wild Cow Draw are critical features. The terrain is dominated by the steep rises of Douglas Mountain and Cross Mountain, with Lone Mountain and the adjacent Lone Mountain Canyon providing distinct vertical relief. A sparse network of county roads, including County Rd 10 and County Rd 157, provides the primary access through this open country, connecting isolated ranching outposts across the East Boone Draw and surrounding canyons.
