About this map

Carbondale sits at the significant confluence of the Roaring Fork River and the Crystal River, serving as a central hub for the surrounding valley. This 2019 survey illustrates a landscape defined by its irrigation and transportation networks, featuring numerous water management systems like the Rockford Ditch, Sweet Jessup Canal, and E Mesa Ditch. These systems support the agricultural reaches between smaller settlements such as Satank, Mulford, and Catherine.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds, including Evergreen Cem and the Carbondale Cem - White Hill Cem, alongside academic sites like the Colorado Mountain College Carbondale campus. The northern terrain is marked by prominent ridges and draws such as Red Hill and Cattle Cr, while the Glen-Aspen Airport indicates the region's modern infrastructure. The map also traces an extensive network of recreational and access paths, including the Northside Loop and Fisher Creek Trail.
