About this map

Sevenmile Hill rises above the high desert landscape of Moffat County, anchoring a terrain defined by complex drainage systems and the prominent uplift of Pine Ridge. This 2019 survey captures the modern ranching and resource-rich character of northwestern Colorado, where water sources like Sand Spring and the ephemeral flows of Big Gulch determine the layout of the land. The map reveals a transition between rural county roads and the specialized infrastructure of localized developments south of the ridge.

Remote access is documented through named trails and crossings, such as the Pine Ridge Trl and Ponderosa Pass, which navigate the elevation changes between the North Fork Big Gulch and Bogenschutz Cr. This record of the Public Land Survey System shows the township and range boundaries that have governed this territory since the frontier era, providing a precise spatial context for the gulches and hills that have shaped the region's history.
