About this map

Eaton Reservoir and the adjacent Worster Reservoir anchor this high-altitude landscape along the border of Larimer County, Colorado, and Albany County, Wyoming. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of numerous drainages, including Running Water Cr, Trout Cr, and the W Fork Beaver Cr, which carve through the elevations of the Roosevelt National Forest. The presence of the Worster Cem near Boulder Ridge provides a significant touchstone for family researchers, marking a legacy of early ranching and settlement in this mountain corridor.

Local transport is represented by a network of ranch and forest roads like Camel Rock Rd and Co Rd 87C, serving remote locations such as Wilderness Ranch. The map captures the intersection of wilderness and watershed management, with Green Mtn and Green Mountain overlooking a series of creeks that feed the larger regional river systems. This 2016 survey documents the enduring physical landmarks of the Front Range backcountry.
