2013 Map of Big Narrows

About this map

Roosevelt National Forest surrounds the high-elevation landscape where the Cache la Poudre River winds through narrow canyons and mountain flats. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the recreational and residential footprints in the area, from the community of Eggers to the gathering point at Stove Prairie Landing. The map is particularly useful for those tracing local family history and mountain settlement, as it explicitly identifies the Bosworth Homestead, Clark Homestead, and Lewis Ranch. Genealogy researchers will find unique value in the recorded locations of solitary burial sites such as the Azuba Batterson Grave and Kitty Lyon Grave, along with the Adams Cem. Steep canyon walls at Big Narrows and peaks like Mount McConnel define the geography, while numerous campgrounds like Kelly Flats Campground indicate the enduring draw of the South Fork Cache la Poudre River.
