The confluence of the Colorado River and the Green River serves as the focal point for this 1962 topographic survey of the canyonlands and high plateaus along the Utah-Colorado border. At this time, the region's isolated settlements were largely defined by mining, ranching, and the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad line. The map highlights the rugged transition from the deep sandstone canyons of Arches National Monument and The Needles to the forested heights of the Manti-La Sal National Forest and the Uncompahgre Plateau.
