Covered by a patchwork of pinyon-juniper woodland and semidesert shrubland, Big Ridge rises above an array of attendant hills, remote and indifferent. A series of drainages dissects the ridge, falling steeply at first, then winding placidly through flat-bottomed draws of terraced sandstone before finally joining Douglas Creek.
