Established in 1890, Grand County was named for the Colorado River, which at the time was known as the Grande River.
Its county seat and largest city is Moab.
The Green River forms the western boundary and Colorado lies on the eastern boundary.
The Colorado River flows through the southeast corner. Deserts, cliffs and plateaus make up the scenery, with few
settlements apart from the city of Moab, a Colorado River oasis.
