About this map

Cheyenne Mountain AFS anchors the rugged western terrain of this El Paso County landscape, marking a significant military presence just south of Colorado Springs. This 2019 survey illustrates a complex intersection of defense installations and natural geography, where the prominent peak of Cheyenne Mtn overlooks the established corridors of Fort Carson and Peterson AFB. To the east, the landscape transitions toward Fountain along Fountain Cr, revealing a network of reservoirs like Haymes Reservoir and North Side Reservoir that support the region's semi-arid environment.

Local history and military development are evident through features like Paupers Cem and specialized educational sites such as Pikes Peak Community College Fort Carson Continuing Education. The map also traces intricate drainage systems through Deadman Canyon and Limekiln Valley, highlighting how the geography of the Pike National Forest interacts with the sprawling infrastructure of Butts Army Airfield (Fort Carson).
