2016 Map of Carbondale

About this map

Carbondale serves as the focal point of this 2016 survey, situated at the confluence of the Roaring Fork River and the Crystal River. The town exhibits a sophisticated network of irrigation and water management, evidenced by the Rockford Ditch, Sweet Jessup Canal, and E Mesa Ditch that weave through the valley floor. To the north, the landscape rises toward Red Hill and Spring Valley, where Colorado Mtn Coll Glenwood Springs is located alongside the Fisher Cem. In the southern reaches of the quadrangle, the Glen-Aspen Airport sits near the small settlements of Mulford and Catherine. This modern record captures the intricate balance between established agricultural infrastructure and the expanding residential footprints of satellite communities like Satank and Kiggin, while preserving the locations of historical burial grounds such as Evergreen Cem and the Carbondale Cem - White Hill Cem.
