About this map

The high-elevation White River Plateau dominates this portion of the White River National Forest, defined by a network of seasonal routes and numerous alpine lakes. Local navigation centers on the Transfer Trail, which winds past Blair Mountain and connects several high mountain basins. The landscape is dotted with named water bodies such as White Owl Lake, Grizzly Lake, and Monument Lake, illustrating the drainage patterns that feed into Grizzly Cr and No Name Cr.

Elevations rise to prominent landmarks like Baxter Peak along Quartzite Ridge, while lower meadows like Elbow Park and Johnson Pasture offer a look at the traditional grazing and recreational lands of Garfield County. The inclusion of the Windy Point Bypass and Transfer Trail (Snow) reflects the specialized transportation needs in this environment, where names like Storm King and Jessie Weaver mark the presence of local figures and historical landmarks.
