About this map

The Green River carves a deep, serpentine path through the high desert of Sweetwater County, shaping a series of distinct alluvial flats known locally as bottoms. This 1980s landscape is defined by the transition from riverine geography to the impounded waters of the Flaming Gorge Reservoir, where the elevation is recorded at 6040 feet. The rugged topography is etched with numerous named drainages and canyons, including Logan Draw, Slippery Jim Canyon, and the deep recesses of Flaming Gorge itself.
