2019 Map of Elkhorn Mountain

About this map

Routt National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape in northern Colorado, where a network of open mountain parks breaks up the timbered terrain. Notable clearings like Whiskey Park, Big Red Park, and Crane Park define the regional geography, providing natural hubs within the forest. Water management is evident at McGregor Reservoir, while the drainage system is led by the Middle Fork Little Snake River and its numerous tributaries including Whiskey Creek and King Solomon Cr. Local history is anchored by the presence of Dead Mexican Park Cem located near the clearing of the same name. Elevations reach distinct heights at Elkhorn Mtn, City Mtn, and the southern boundary marked by Nipple Peak. This 2019 survey documents the modern forest road system, featuring the Elkhorn and Pioneer routes, alongside specialized recreation paths such as the Kids Loop and Farwell Connector.
