About this map

The confluence of the Colorado River and the Piney River defines this high-elevation landscape in Eagle County. In the northern reaches of the map, the small settlements of Bond and State Bridge serve as focal points for the regional transportation network, where Trough Rd and Stagecoach Rd navigate the steep river valleys. The terrain is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Windy Point and High Trail Gulch, illustrating the complex drainage systems that feed into the Colorado.

Water management and ranching infrastructure are evident through features like the Welsh Reservoir and Welsh Dam in the southwest. A network of rural residential and ranch roads, including Horse Mountain Ranch Rd and Alkali Cr Rd, connects scattered homesites across the basins of Alkali Creek and Willow Creek. This 2011 survey captures a moment of modern rural development as larger landholdings were subdivided into named tracts accessed by ways like Mountain View Ln and Silver Spur Trl.
