2016 Map of Eagle Roost

About this map

The Williams Fork Mountains dominate the high-altitude landscape of this Summit County and Grand County border region, captured during a period of extensive trail mapping. The Blue River valley serves as a central corridor, with its waters partially diverted into the Green Mountain Reservoir in the northwest. This area is a significant intersection of public lands, where the Arapaho National Forest meets the White River National Forest. Genealogists and local historians will find the Kansas Gulch Grandview Cem north of the river, near the Lonesome Gulch drainage. The map details a complex network of historic routes and access ways, including the Gore Range Trail, Ute Pass, and the Kirkwood Ditch Access Trail, reflecting the area's long history of ranching and mountain transit.
