About this map

The Piceance Creek Basin dominates this portion of Rio Blanco County, characterized by a complex drainage network that reflects the region's unique geology. High ridges are dissected by numerous named waterways including Piceance Cr and Black Sulphur Cr, while significant terrain features like Big Jimmy Gulch and Enoch Gulch shape the local topography. This area is defined more by its natural hydrology than by human settlement, with access provided by a network of county roads such as Co RD 5 and Co RD 69. The map illustrates a landscape of intermittent streams and gulches like Little Dry Gulch and Dry Gulch, which have historically dictated the placement of ranching routes and property boundaries across the township and range sections.
