2010 Map of Bull Fork

About this map

The Roan Plateau dominates this high-altitude landscape in Garfield County, defined by a complex network of deep drainages and ridges. In this 2010 survey, the terrain is shaped by the headwaters of numerous watercourses, including Bull Fork and the intricate West Fork Parachute Creek system. The map reveals how local transportation adheres to the topography, with County Rd 87 and County Rd 89 skirting the western edges of the plateau. Notable landforms like Puddin Ridge separate the various gulches, such as Little Dry Gulch and Whiskey Gulch. This environment remains primarily focused on its natural drainage patterns, with East Willow Creek and West Hunter Creek carving significant paths through the plateau. The placement of these water sources and named gulches like Scandard Gulch provides essential geographic markers for land management and environmental study in this part of Colorado.
