1966 Map of Vermillion Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Vermillion Mesa defines the high ground of this corner of Moffat County, where a network of deeply etched drainage systems like Big Bend Draw and Douglas Draw carve into the plateau. The landscape is marked by the presence of vital water sources in a semi-arid environment, notably Hughes Spring, Willow Spring, and Loomis Spring. These landmarks, along with Hughes Flats, suggest a history of localized ranching or land use centered around these rare reliable flows.
