2011 Map of Jones Hill

About this map

South London Mine and the Golden Calf Mine are prominent features in this high-altitude landscape, which reflects a legacy of extraction and ranching in Park County. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of the South Fork South Platte River, which receives flow from numerous drainage systems like Rough and Tumbling Creek and Twelvemile Creek. Transport through this area is facilitated by County RD-22 and Cave Creek Rd, which provide access to Weston Pass Ranch and the Rich Creek Campground. Historical water management is evident at Mikles Ditch, while prominent elevations like Black Mountain and Jones Hill anchor the local topography. This document captures the intersection of industrial mining sites and modern recreational use within the national forest system.
