About this map

Little Snake River winds through the southern portion of this high-country landscape in Moffat County, forming the primary drainage for the surrounding draws and ridges. The topography is defined by the prominent Sevenmile Ridge, which runs north-to-south, separated from western elevations by the deep drainage of Sevenmile Draw. The landscape's character is further marked by the isolated rise of Yellow Cat Butte in the northwest, a distinctive landmark amidst the high-altitude terrain.

Settlement patterns here are sparse, represented primarily by a network of county roads including Co RD 75 and Co RD 66 that trace the easiest paths between the draws. The map illustrates a remote section of the American West where land use is dictated by the water flow of the Dugout Draw and the river valley, offering a detailed look at the physical geography before it reaches the more developed regions of the county.
