About this map

White River National Forest defines this high-altitude landscape in Garfield County, where deep drainages like Main Elk Creek and East Elk Creek cut through the plateau. The 2013 survey illustrates a complex network of established pack trails and forest service routes, including the Main Elk Trail and the East Elk Creek Trail, which provide access to the interior. Notable peaks and overlook points such as Deep Creek Point, Hadley Point, and Windy Point punctuate the high ground above the creek beds.

Evidence of seasonal agricultural activity is found at Clinetop Cow Camp, situated near Clinetop Mesa. The terrain is marked by numerous water sources critical for livestock and wildlife, including Joe Hill Spring, Bear Spring, and Prospect Spring. Significant landmarks like Joe Hill and Calhoun Basin provide orientation within this extensive forest territory, while Co Road 245 and Buford Rd serve as the primary conduits into the backcountry.
