2013 Map of Ninemile Hill

About this map

Great Divide stands at the eastern edge of this corner of Moffat County, overlooking a landscape defined by deep drainages and high basin rims. The Little Snake River meanders through the northwest, carving a path between the steep walls of Deep Canyon and the natural depression of Sellers Hole. The topography is dominated by the massive rise of Ninemile Hill and the sprawling Ninemile Basin, which transition southward into the prominent Godiva Rim. This area is marked by a network of county roads, including CO Road 21 and CO Road 71, which connect the isolated ranchlands and grazing territories. The southeastern corner is anchored by the Bald Mountain Basin, where the West Fork Sand Creek begins its descent through the high-elevation terrain, illustrating the complex watershed patterns typical of this Colorado high desert environment.
