About this map

The Continental Divide bisects this high-elevation landscape, marking the boundary between the Arapaho National Forest and White River National Forest. At the southern edge of the survey lies the resort community of Keystone, situated near the confluence of the Snake River and N Fork Snake River. The topographic detail illustrates the dramatic verticality of the Williams Fork Mountains and peaks like Pettingell Peak and Mt Bethel.

Modern transportation infrastructure is central to the area's utility, highlighted by the Eisenhower Memorial Tunnel passing beneath Coon Hill. High-altitude routes including Loveland Pass Rd navigate the steep gradients near Loveland Pass and Pass Lake. The map also meticulously traces numerous backcountry paths such as the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail and the Ptarmigan Pass Trail, which provide access to remote drainages like Herman Gulch and Hamilton Gulch.
