2023 Map of Diamond Flat

About this map

The Lander Trail passes through the high country of the Caribou Range, tracing a historical corridor of western migration through what is now the Caribou National Forest. This high-elevation terrain is defined by the sharp divide between the Webster Range and the Upper Valley, where numerous drainages like Stump Creek and Timothy Creek carve through the landscape. The namesake Diamond Flat and nearby Diamond Peak serve as prominent landmarks for navigation across this rugged stretch of Caribou County. A dense network of established paths, including the Webster Ridge Trl and Horse Creek Trl, illustrates how modern forest management and recreation continue to utilize the same natural gaps and ridgelines once traversed by nineteenth-century pioneers.
