2016 Map of Rock School
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
The Piceance Creek Basin defines the landscape of this northwestern Colorado quadrangle, where a complex network of canyons and gulches drains into the primary waterways. The convergence of Black Sulphur Cr and Piceance Cr provides a focal point for understanding the local topography and historical movement through this region. This 2016 survey illustrates the remote character of the area, punctuated by numerous family-named or descriptive landmarks such as McKee Gulch, Enoch Gulch, and Big Jimmy Gulch. A limited network of county roads, including Co RD 5 and Co RD 26, traces the low-lying drainages, reflecting how the winding paths of Hunter Cr and Willow Cr have historically dictated access and settlement patterns in this rugged interior of Rio Blanco County.
