2013 Map of Monument

About this map

Monument and Woodmoor serve as central hubs in this landscape, situated along the I-25 corridor between Colorado Springs and the northern reaches of El Paso County. The map reveals a dense network of suburban development and ranching heritage, with large properties like Wissler Ranch and Misty Acres Ranch bordering organized communities. To the south, the presence of the United States Air Force Academy Cemetery and Gleneagle indicates the military and residential expansion defining this region. Water management is a prominent theme, evidenced by the series of reservoirs along West Cherry Creek, including W Cherry Cr Detention Number 1 Reservoir through Number 6. Local history is preserved at the Mount Herman Grange and several traditional burial sites like Monument Cemetery and Saint Matthias Cemetery.
