2013 Map of Farwell Mountain

About this map

Farwell Mountain and the high ridges of the Routt National Forest define this landscape within the Elk River watershed. The area is marked by a complex network of backcountry routes, including the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail and the Wyoming Trail, which traverse the high country between Dome Peak and the southern river valleys. Drainages such as King Solomon Creek and Silver City Creek feed into the Elk River system, while steep geological features like Hole-in-Wall Canyon and Box Canyon break the terrain. At lower elevations, named open spaces like Diamond Park, Hinman Park, and Boulder Park provide distinct clearings among the forested slopes. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the modern trail system and hydrological patterns before any later 21st-century environmental shifts.
