About this map

Cheesman Lake is the defining feature of this Colorado landscape, held in place by the Cheesman Dam at the junction of the Jefferson and Douglas county lines. This mid-century survey details the rugged topography of the Pike National Forest, where steep canyons like Molly Gulch and Flickenstein Gulch drain into the central reservoir. The map documents several notable institutional holdings, including the Flying G Ranch (Girl Scout Camp) and the Wigwam Club situated along Wigwam Creek.
