About this map

Stahl Ranch, Wann Ranch, and the Nash Ranch anchor a high-altitude ranching landscape at the boundary of Park and Fremont Counties. This 2013 survey illustrates a terrain defined by steep drainage systems and prominent peaks, notably Cover Mountain in the north and Delilah Peak to the southwest. The area is intersected by a network of drainage features like Horsethief Gulch, Seymour Gulch, and Binckley Gulch, which feed into major watercourses such as Wilson Cr and Currant Cr.

Transport through this part of the Front Range is facilitated by Co 9 and several rural routes including High Park Rd and Cap Rock Rd. The naming conventions throughout the quadrangle, from the F L Rowe Ranch to Newberry Gulch, reflect a long history of local land use and family holdings. Significant topographic features like Cap Rock Ridge and Flat Top Ridge separate the various basins and gulches, creating a complex mountain geography.
