2013 Map of McCurdy Mountain

About this map

The Tarryall Mountains and high-altitude terrain of the Pike National Forest dominate this landscape on the boundary of Park and Jefferson counties. This 2013 survey details a network of established wilderness access points, including the Twin Eagles Picnic Area and several campgrounds such as Spruce Grove Campground and Goose Creek Campground. The topography is defined by significant peaks like Bison Mountain, McCurdy Mountain, and South Tarryall Peak, separated by deep drainages including Refrigerator Gulch and Hankins Gulch. Modern infrastructure is largely limited to the southwest corner near Bayou Salado Reservoir, where Co Road 77 and Co Road 597 provide access to the Twin Eagles Trailhead. Historic travel routes are preserved as named paths, such as the Brookside-McCurdy Trail 607 and Goose Creek Trail 612, which connect geologic landmarks like Harmonica Arch and X Rock across the high passes.
