2022 Map of Red Rock Canyon

About this map

The Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park dominates the northeast corner of this Colorado landscape, where the Gunnison River carves deep into the terrain. Below the canyon rim, a complex network of agricultural and mountain infrastructure supports the region, including the Loutsenhizer Canal and a dense system of historic ditches such as the Narrow Gauge Ditch Trl and Monster Ditch Trl. To the south, the city of Montrose marks the transition from the high plateaus of North Mesa and Flat Top to the settled valley floor. The map details an extensive trail system crossing unique geological features like Red Rocks and the heights of Green Mtn, reflecting the area's development for both resource management and modern recreation in the Uncompahgre Valley vicinity.
