About this map

Harris Park and Highland Park sit at the southern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where residential streets like Shelton Dr and Harris Park Rd meet the vast wilderness of the Pike National Forest. To the north and west, the terrain rises sharply into the Continental Mountains, dominated by towering summits such as Rogers Peak and Rosalie Peak. This 2019 survey documents a complex network of alpine drainage, where headwaters for Bear Cr, Cub Creek, and Deer Cr flow through glaciated features like the Summit Lake Flats and Beaver Meadows.

Tracing the boundary between Arapaho National Forest and Pike, the map illustrates the transition from the developed roads of the park communities to the remote backcountry of the Beartrack Lakes and Roosevelt Lakes. Significant landmarks like Pegmatite Points and Bandit Peak define the high ridges, while the many named drainages, including Tanglewood Cr and Lost Creek, indicate the vital watershed role this region plays for the Front Range.
