2022 Map of Georgetown

About this map

Georgetown and Silver Plume anchor this survey of the high mountain terrain within the Arapaho National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the steep valley of Clear Creek, where the historic mining and transit heritage of the region is written into the topography. The Argentine Central Railroad Grade Trl traces the complex engineering required to navigate the ascent toward Argentine Pass, while the Silver Plume To Georgetown Express Trl connects the two primary settlements. Local landmarks like the Clear Creek County Courthouse and the Griffin Monument stand alongside evidence of early industry, including the 7:30 Mine Trl and D Mine Rd. Water management is prominent through the Georgetown Reservoir and Upper Cabin Cr Reservoir, servicing the communities tucked beneath peaks like Republican Mtn and Leavenworth Mtn.
