2016 Map of Jack Hall Mountain

About this map

San Isabel National Forest dominates this section of Fremont County, where high peaks and deep drainages define the landscape. The prominent Jack Hall Mountain and Little Baldy Mtn serve as the primary landmarks in an area heavily marked by historical prospecting and timbering. The naming of the local geography reveals much about the era's character, with evocative labels such as Tombstone Gulch, Banning Cabin Gulch, and Hells Hole Gulch hinting at the challenges faced by early settlers and miners. Multiple watercourses, including Badger Cr and Monument Cr, cut through the terrain, while routes like Co RD 11 and BLM RD 5980 provide modern access points into the high country. The map's grid of gulches, from Mill Gulch to Mayflower Gulch, suggests a history of localized resource extraction typical of the southern Colorado mountains.
