About this map

Rangely occupies the valley floor of the White River in this modern-era documentation of Rio Blanco County. The town layout is characterized by a central grid north of the river, anchored by Colorado Northwestern Community Coll Rangely Campus and the Rangely Cem. To the east, the Rangely Airport sits near the junction of Douglas Cr and the river, marking a significant infrastructure point for this high-desert community.

The surrounding geography is defined by a complex network of arroyos and washes, including Dead Dog Draw, Stinking Water Cr, and Sulphur Draw. These drainage patterns, such as Little Trujillo Wash and Big Trujillo Wash, carve through the landscape toward the Coal Oil Rim in the northeast. This 2016 survey highlights the relationship between the concentrated town center and the expansive, drainage-marked plateaus of the Piceance Basin.
