About this map

Beulah and its surrounding mountain ranchlands appear here as they were in the mid-1960s, defined by the transition from the San Isabel National Forest to the high plains. The settlement pattern is anchored by the St Charles River and its various tributaries, including Middle Creek and Squirrel Creek. Notable local infrastructure includes a Ranger Station, Filtration Plant, and a Stock Arena near the town center.

Outside of the main village, the landscape is marked by prominent peaks and ridges like Hogback Mountain and Sugarloaf Mountain. Isolated outposts and landmarks such as the Three R Ranch and Goodpasture show the distribution of land use across the rugged foothills. The presence of the Beulah Dam and numerous canyons, like Wales Canyon and Galbeth Canyon, illustrates the complex water management and natural drainage systems vital to this Colorado community.
