2022 Map of Arkansas Mountain

About this map

Cotopaxi serves as the focal point along the southern edge of this Fremont County landscape, situated where the Arkansas River carves through the Arkansas River Canyon. The terrain north of the river is defined by an intricate network of drainages and high points, including Arkansas Mtn, Garell Peak, and Cedar Springs Mtn. Numerous water sources such as Indian Springs and Mud Spring are scattered across the high country, indicating the essential role of hydrology in this high-altitude environment. The map details a complex system of primitive roads and trails, such as the Brigadew Springs Trl and various Bureau of Land Management routes like Blm T6051b Trl, which provide access to namesake features like Falls Gulch and Mine Gulch. The naming of Chauncy Hayden Gulch and Henthorn Gulch suggests a history of local family settlement and land use tied to the area's canyons and peaks.
