About this map

White Rock and the surrounding high country of the Danforth Hills define this landscape on the border of Rio Blanco and Moffat counties. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of drainages and ridges, where Coyote Basin sits to the northwest and Strawberry Peak rises prominently above the intersection of several deep canyons. Water sources, often vital markers in this arid environment, are specifically named as Moonshine Spring, Coal Spring, and Bitter Spring.

The hydrography is dominated by Strawberry Cr, which gathers flow from numerous tributary canyons such as Teds Gulch, Smith Gulch, and Gower Gulch. To the south, the landscape transitions into the Gray Hills and the distinct formation of Dick Ridge. This 2016 survey documents the remote road network, including Co RD 7 and Co RD 57, providing a precise record of access routes through this dissected plateau region.
