2022 Map of Big Bull Mountain

About this map

Pike National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape where the southern border of Teller Co meets Fremont Co. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and drainage systems, including Big Bull Mtn, Brind Mtn, and the distinctive Nipple Mtn. Water management is evident at Pringtime Reservoir, which feeds into the complex network of Willow Cr and Middle Beaver Cr. The map reveals a transition from these high summits down into the dramatic geography of Phantom Canyon in the southwest. A network of historic thoroughfares, such as Gold Camp Rd and Beaver Valley RD, provides access through the gulches and along the creek beds, tracing the routes once vital for mountain commerce and transit between regional mining hubs.
