About this map

Hot Sulphur Springs serves as the focal point of this mountain landscape, positioned where the Colorado River carves through the dramatic Byers Canyon. As the seat of local government, the town is home to the Grand County Judicial Center and is bordered by the historic Hot Sulphur Springs Cem. The surrounding terrain within the Arapaho National Forest is defined by a complex network of water management features, including the Huntington Reservoir, Cottonwood Reservoir, and several irrigation works like the Jones High Line Ditch.

High-altitude landmarks such as Mt Bross, Mt Chauncey, and the Blue Ridge overlook a territory crisscrossed by forest trails and historic routes. Notable paths like the Horseshoe-Sulphur Trl and the Beaver Creek Trl navigate the slopes leading toward Cottonwood Pass. The arrangement of these trails and named ditches reflects a long-standing reliance on the high-country watershed for both recreation and local utility.
