2022 Map of Boettcher Lake

About this map

Fort Boettcher sits as a central landmark in this high-altitude landscape where water management and wilderness recreation define the terrain. The eastern half of the map is dominated by a complex network of irrigation infrastructure along the N Fork N Platte River, including the Shafer Ditch, Zirkel Ditch, and Haworth Ditch Number 2. These hand-drawn water routes contrast with the wild western reaches within the Routt National Forest, where the topography rises sharply toward Bear Mtn.
