The town of Meeker sits along the northern bank of the White River, serving as a central hub for this portion of Rio Blanco County. The landscape is defined by the striking ridge of the Grand Hogback, which separates the river valley from the deep drainages of West Fork Lion Canyon and East Fork Lion Canyon to the north. This survey illustrates a highly developed irrigation network essential for ranching and agriculture in the high desert, featuring the Powell Park Ditch, Meeker Ditch, and Highland Ditch. Local history and genealogy are anchored by two distinct burial grounds: Strawberry Creek Cem in the northern hills and Highland Cem overlooking the river valley. The map also detail the expanding Meeker Trail System-Trl, including the China Wall Trl and East Ridge Trl, which navigate the steep terrain surrounding the town.
