Platte Canyon and the South Platte River define the northern landscape of this mid-1960s survey, where the river serves as the boundary between Jefferson and Douglas counties. The topography is dominated by the Hogback ridge system, separating the mountain front of the Pike National Forest from the plains. Water management infrastructure is prominent, including the Highline Canal, Municipal Aqueduct, and the Aurora Rampart Tunnel No 2 which feeds the Aurora Rampart Reservoir.
