About this map

The settlement of Fulford sits at the base of the high peaks within the White River National Forest, serving as a focal point for this 2019 survey of the Colorado high country. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent summits including New York Mtn, Adam Mtn, and Porphyry Mtn, interspersed with specialized clearings like Graveyard Flats and Dubach Meadows. A network of historic irrigation and transport routes, such as the Graham Ditch and the Bemis Ditch, indicates the long-standing management of water resources in these alpine reaches.

Local landmarks such as Whittaker Point and Bellyache Ridge frame the drainage basins of Salt Creek and Squaw Creek. For the researcher, the map preserves the exact locations of remote mountain infrastructure, from the Salt Creek Trailhead to isolated springs like Happy Jack Spring and Bear Cat Spring, reflecting the area's transition from early mining and ranching roots to contemporary recreational use.
