2011 Map of Evergreen

About this map

Evergreen sits at the heart of this mountain landscape, where the waters of Bear Creek flow into Evergreen Lake, held by the Evergreen Dam. The settlement pattern reflects a mid-century expansion into the foothills, with residential clusters like Hiwan Hills, Wah Keeney Park, and Mountain Meadow Heights branching out from the historic core. This 2011 survey reveals the area's transition from a mining-oriented past to a residential and recreational hub. Traces of earlier industry remain visible through geological features such as the Sunrise Peak Mine and the Roscoe Beryl Quarry, alongside the Seven Hills-Yetter Ranch Pegmatite Quarry. Further north, the steep walls of Clear Creek Canyon are bypassed by a series of tunnels, including Tunnel Number 3, while community anchors such as Evergreen Cemetery and Rockland Cemetery provide critical points of interest for local genealogy and history.
