The Colorado River is noticeably shorter, and the Horseshoe Bend is now in Utah instead of Arizona.However, the distance between the Double Arch and the Windows in reality is at least twice the distance as in the game, and the Delicate Arch is to the far north of both of them. The Delicate Arch, the Windows and the Double Arch are portrayed like they're next to each other.The Smuggler-Union Hydroelectric Power Plant is not on Maroon Peak.Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks aren't located just north of Denver, but rather to the extreme north.In real life, the Red Rocks Amphitheater is to the southwest of Denver, whereas in-game it's to the west.In real life, the Air Force Academy is northwest of downtown Colorado Springs, whereas in-game it's to the south southwest.These are some discrepancies between the game map and a real world map: For these reasons, it is impossible for the game map to be accurately laid over a real map of the Western United States. While some locations are directly based on their real-life counterparts, some only take visual inspirations, and other locations don't exist in the real world to begin with. Several artistic liberties are taken regarding the relative distance between real locations and their position relative to the prime directions, or by bringing two faraway locations extremely close together and leaving out vast swaths of territory in between.
