2010 Map of High Park

About this map

Bare Hills dominate the topography of this Fremont County landscape, where the high-altitude terrain is marked by a network of seasonal drainages and mining history. The northern reaches are defined by the Albany Mine and the prominent Booger Red Hill, while the southeastern corner reveals the Blue Nugget Mine near the headwaters of Trail Gulch. The road network, including High Park Rd and several routes named for Indigenous peoples like Cherokee Rd and Apache Rd, suggests a region of modern residential or recreational access into the high country. Water sources such as Sheep Springs and the confluence of City Creek and Wilson Creek provide critical points of interest in an otherwise arid and dissected landscape. The map captures a transition where traditional extraction sites like Albany Mine sit alongside developing rural corridors.
