2016 Map of Dunckley Pass

About this map

Routt National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Routt and Rio Blanco counties. The map highlights a network of vital mountain crossings, most notably Dunckley Pass and Yellowjacket Pass, which serve as critical nodes for travel through the Dunckley Flat Tops. The region's water management history is etched into the terrain through numerous high-country storage sites, including Sheriff Reservoir, Haley Reservoir, and Bill Reservoir. A complex system of trails, such as the Gill Reservoir Trail and Bunker Basin Trail, connects these water bodies across diverse landforms like Egry Mesa and Bunker Basin. This 2016 survey provides a clear look at the infrastructure of the Williams Fork drainage, tracing the paths of the E Fork Williams Fork and numerous tributaries like Willow Cr and Austrian Cr.
