About this map

Meridian Hill and Shadow Mountain dominate the central terrain of this Jefferson County survey, which documents the residential pockets and recreational corridors southwest of the Denver area in the early 21st century. The settlement of Harris Park sits along Elk Creek in the southwest corner, while Brook Forest serves as a northern anchor near the junction of Chicken Creek and Cub Creek.

A network of mountain roads and trails, including Old Mill Rd and Yankee Creek Rd, provides access to significant local landmarks such as Our Lady of the Rockies Camp and the Maxwell Falls Picnic Grounds. The map illustrates a landscape where small mountain communities are integrated into a complex drainage system featuring North Elk Creek and Buffalo Creek, highlighting the region's long-standing draw for seasonal camping and residential retreats.
