About this map

Gypsum sits at the confluence of the Eagle River and Gypsum Cr, serving as a vital hub for the ranching and transportation networks of Eagle County. This 2022 survey reveals a complex landscape where traditional irrigation systems, such as the Casper-Schumm Ditch and the Chatfield and Bartholomew Ditch, operate alongside modern infrastructure like the Eagle County Regional Airport. The town's residential growth is evident in the detailed street layouts of neighborhoods like Cotton Ranch Dr, while local heritage is anchored by the Cedar Hill Memorial Cem.

Beyond the river valley, the terrain rises sharply toward the heights of Greenhorn Mtn and the winding paths of Agnew Gulch. The backcountry is defined by an extensive network of fire roads and trails, including Trail Gulch Rd and numerous numbered routes like 8476 Trl. These pathways trace the drainages of Sheep Gulch and Greenhorn Gulch, illustrating the transition from the irrigated valley floor to the high-elevation wilderness of the surrounding mountain ranges.
