About this map

Ouray sits at the vital confluence of the Duchesne River and the Green River, marking a point where water has shaped the landscape and human activity for generations. This modern survey illustrates the complex river system of the Uinta Valley, where the White River also joins the Green nearby. Much of the northern terrain is dedicated to the Ouray National Wildlife Refuge, protecting wetland habitats such as Old Charley Wash.

The surrounding geography is defined by broad benches and named draws, including Leland Bench and Panette Draw. Local transit is characterized by specialized routes like Wyasket Bottom Rd and Wonsits Rd, which navigate the riparian bottoms and ridges. From the southern Seep Ridge to the low-lying Tia Juana Bottom, the map provides a contemporary view of this remote intersection of Utah's major waterways.
