1986 Map of Ninemile Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Little Snake River carves a serpentine path through this high-elevation landscape in Moffat County, creating distinct geological pockets like Sellers Hole along its banks. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation shifts, anchored by the sweeping arc of the Godiva Rim and the prominence of Bald Mountain. This mid-1980s USGS study captures the area's transition from open drainage basins to rugged upland plateaus, where the Ninemile Basin sits below the eponymous Ninemile Hill. Resource exploration is evident through scattered Drill Hole locations, while the hydrology of the region is traced through seasonal watercourses such as Shaffers Draw and the West Fork Sand Creek Basin. The map provides a clear record of the access roads and topographical contours that shaped land use in this part of Northwest Colorado.
