2016 Map of Zenobia Peak

About this map

Dinosaur National Monument encompasses large portions of this landscape, where high-elevation summits like Zenobia Peak and Douglas Mtn overlook a complex system of drainage basins. The arid environment is marked by essential water sources for cattle and wildlife, including Chicken Springs, Five Spring, and Cove Reservoir. The terrain transitions from the heights of the Ant Hills down into named basins such as Starvation Valley and Peterson Valley. Toward the southern edge, the Yampa River flows through the deep incisions of the plateau, while numerous ephemeral channels like Big Joe Draw and Holland Draw define the topography. Isolated landmarks such as Reds Knob stand as distinct points in a region primarily managed for conservation and ranching, accessible via rural routes like Co RD 60.
