About this map

White River National Forest defines the landscape of this high-country survey, where the Rio Blanco Co Garfield Co boundary line bisects deep river canyons and high mesas. The 1960s terrain is characterized by a network of traditional mountain routes, including the historic Ute Trail, which winds past Meadow Creek Lake. Evidence of local ranching and seasonal grazing is found at sites like Meadow Creek Cow Camp and Clark Cabin Spring. In the northern section, the Flat Tops Wilderness preserves a rugged expanse of peaks and canyons, notably the South Fork White River as it cuts through the landscape. Recreational developments of the mid-20th century are marked by the South Fork Campground and Meadow Creek Campground, serving as basepoints for those navigating the New Castle Buford Road and various pack trails.
