About this map

The Wet Mountain Valley floor and the surrounding high-altitude terrain dominate this 2013 survey of the Aldrich Gulch area. This landscape reflects a mix of ranching heritage and aviation accessibility, anchored by the Geary Ranch Airport and the Silver West Airport along the valley’s eastern reaches. The prominent drainage of Grape Cr carves through the central portion of the map, fed by a network of seasonal streams including Antelope Cr and Macey Cr.

Genealogists and local researchers will find the Silver Cliff Cem near the northern boundary, situated near the transition to the Rosita Hills. To the southwest, the boundary of the San Isabel National Forest encompasses more dramatic elevations near Middle Colony Cr. The map details the modern road network, such as Co 69, which follows the natural contours of the valley floor between significant landmarks like Rattlesnake Hill and Aldrich Gulch.
