About this map

Bottle Pass and the surrounding high-altitude drainage systems of the Fraser Valley define this high-country landscape. The 2011 survey documents a network of mountain roads and water management features, including the Big Six Ditch and the Sinkovits and Linke Dam on the upper reaches of West Fork Ninemile Creek. These systems underscore the historical and ongoing importance of water rights and diversion in Grand County.

Lower elevations feature recreational and communal hubs such as Camp Chief Ouray and the Byers Creek Campground. The map traces the rugged divide between the Blue Ridge and Green Ridge, providing a detailed look at the watershed before it reaches the valley floor. Notable peaks like Ptarmigan Peak and Sheep Mountain dominate the central terrain, while the secluded Lake Evelyn sits at the headwaters of Evelyn Creek in the southwestern quadrant.
