2013 Map of Hillside

About this map

Hillside sits at the junction of Co-69 and CO Road 1A, marking a transitional point where the valley floor meets the high peaks of the Sangre de Cristo range. This 2013 survey details the complex drainage systems that define the area, including Texas Cr and numerous named gulches like Back Door Gulch, Likely Gulch, and Turkey Gulch. The landscape is dominated by significant elevations such as Lookout Mountain, Gem Mountain, and Democratic Mountain, while the human footprint is seen in scattered ranching operations like the Trails End Ranch. Local aviation is represented by the Lake Creek Ranch Airport, and the Hillside Cem provides a point of interest for genealogists tracing early families. The border between Fremont Co and Custer Co bisects the southern portion of the quadrangle near the Hook Reservoir.
