2011 Map of Mount Deception

About this map

Trout Creek carves a central valley through this section of the Rocky Mountains, creating a corridor of recreation and historical landmarks north of Woodland Park. The landscape is defined by the Rampart Range to the east and prominent peaks like Mount Deception and Soldier Mountain rising above numerous gulches. Water management and community gathering points are central to the area's layout, evidenced by the Manitou Park Dam forming Manitou Park Lake and the presence of the Manitou Park Grange. While much of the terrain is dedicated to public land and timber, sites like the Sky High Girl Scout Camp and the Worden Ranch show the mix of youth education and private ranching interests. The southern portion of the map transitions into the residential outskirts of the community, where the Woodland Park Reservoir and Woodland Park Dam serve the local population near the headwaters of South Beaver Creek.
