Eriogonum gordonii is common to even locally abundant throughout a range that extends in an arc from the Colorado Plateau of extreme northern Coconino and Apache counties, Arizona, and San Juan County, New Mexico, northward through the desert regions of eastern Utah and western Colorado into southwestern Wyoming, then northeastward mainly in short-grass prairie through east-central Wyoming and extreme northwestern Nebraska to South Dakota. A series of disjunct populations occurs in Fremont and Las Animas counties in Colorado. The species can be weedy in appearance but usually is absent from areas of significant disturbance, unlike other annual wild buckwheats.

Eriogonum eastwoodianum is rare and known only from two disjunct locations in Fresno County, one in the Silver Creek Canyon area and the other above Jacalitos Ranch on Parkfield Grade. Plants from a third site in the Cottonwood Pass area of San Luis Obispo County are now assigned to E. temblorense. That species and E. vestitum are closely related to E. eastwoodianum, and only fully mature plants can be assigned unquestionably to one of those species.
