About this map

The Wet Mountain Valley dominates this high-altitude landscape, where the neighboring settlements of Westcliffe and Silver Cliff sit at the northern edge of the sheet. This area reflects a classic transition between the alluvial valley floor and the rising peaks of the San Isabel National Forest to the south. The drainage network is particularly dense here, with numerous creeks such as Grape Cr, Antelope Cr, and Horn Cr flowing out of the surrounding heights. Local heritage is well-preserved through several established burial grounds, including the Silver Cliff Cem, Hope Cem, and the Assumption Catholic Cem. To the east, the topography becomes more complex as the terrain ascends into the Rosita Hills, marked by distinctive features like Rattlesnake Hill and Knickerbocker Hill. The inclusion of both Silver West Airport and Geary Ranch Airport indicates the modern infrastructure serving this rural Custer County ranching and mountain community.
