2022 Map of Mount Jackson

About this map

The high-altitude wilderness of the Sawatch Range dominates this 2022 survey, defined by a network of glacial basins and alpine lakes within the White River National Forest. The landscape is centered on prominent summits including Mt Jackson, Fools Peak, and Savage Peak, with the notable Holy Cross Ridge forming a natural barrier in the southeast. A intricate system of trails, such as the Lake Charles Trl and Missouri Lakes Trl, provides the primary access to remote water bodies like Mystic Island Lake and Eagle Lake. The drainage patterns are clearly marked by the headwaters of Lime Creek and Missouri Cr, while topographic features like Gold Dust Basin and Tellurium Park highlight the area's geological character and its history of mineral exploration indicated by the surrounding place names.
