2017 Map of Double Falls

About this map

Lewis & Clark National Forest encompasses the high-altitude terrain of this region, defined by complex drainage networks and dramatic elevation changes. The namesake Double Falls is a central landmark along Ford Cr, which cuts through the center of the sheet below the elevated The Steps. The landscape is dominated by notable heights such as Fairview Mtn in the northwest and McCarty Hill, providing a look at the geological transitions between Lime Ridge and the Ford Creek Plateau. Road access during this era is concentrated along routes like Beaver Willow Rd and the Augusta Ranger Sta Rd, reflecting the management and recreational infrastructure of the national forest. Numerous waterways, including White-water Cr and N Fork Willow Cr, illustrate the intricate hydrography of the Front Range.
