2010 Map of Ninemile Hill

About this map

The Little Snake River meanders through the northwest corner of this Moffat County landscape, defining a series of sharp bends near Sellers Hole. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a sparsely populated region of northwestern Colorado, where the tiny settlement of Great Divide stands as a primary point of reference in the east. The terrain is marked by significant topographical shifts, from the broad expanse of Ninemile Basin to the prominent heights of Ninemile Hill and Bald Mountain. A network of unpaved thoroughfares, including County Rd-71 and County Rd-21, navigate the drainage patterns of Shaffers Draw and the Godiva Rim. The map provides a detailed look at the drainage basin for the West Fork Sand Creek, offering genealogists and land researchers a precise record of the county road infrastructure and geographic landmarks at the start of the decade.
