2016 Map of Leadville North

About this map

Evergreen Cem and the residential streets of northern Leadville anchor the southeastern corner of this survey, where the town's urban grid meets the high-elevation terrain of the San Isabel National Forest. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Arkansas River and the E Fork Arkansas River, which flow south toward Leadville Junction. To the north, the Continental Divide winds through the peaks, crossing Tennessee Pass near the boundary of the White River National Forest. This region is a complex intersection of historic mining-era land use and modern conservation, featuring a network of gulches and ridges like Fryer Hill and Canterbury Hill that overlook the valley floor. Transportation corridors follow the natural topography, with CO Hwy 24 and various forest roads tracing paths through Tennessee Park and toward the recreational waters of Turquoise Lake.
