2010 Map of Castle Rock North

About this map

Cherry Creek and its many tributary gulches define the landscape north of Castle Rock, where suburban expansion meets the region's ranching and mining history. The map captures a moment of significant residential growth, showing established and emerging neighborhoods like Founders Village, Castlewood North, and The Pinery spread across the high terrain. Historical markers of the earlier frontier era remain visible, including the Newlin Gulch Mine in the north and the Leonard Mine near Franktown. The complex network of the Arapahoe Canal weaves through the eastern half of the quadrangle, illustrating the importance of water management in this part of Douglas County. Cultural landmarks such as the Pikes Peak Grange and several community burial grounds, including Cedar Hill Cemetery and Franktown Cemetery, provide specific points of interest for those tracing local family lineages or the evolution of these Front Range communities.
