2013 Map of Mount Logan

About this map

Grant and Webster serve as the primary valley settlements along the North Fork S Platte River, a corridor defined by early transportation and ranching roots in the high country. This 2013 survey of the Pike National Forest highlights the intersection of modern recreation and historical geography, featuring the Colorado Trail and several cemetery sites like the Webster Cemetery and Lamping Cemetery. The landscape is dominated by the massive presence of the Platte River Mountains and Kenosha Mountains, with peaks like Mount Logan and North Twin Cone Peak rising above a network of gulches. Beneath this complex surface, the Harold D Roberts Tunnel represents a significant piece of hidden hydraulic infrastructure, cutting through the mountain range to carry water toward the Front Range. The map effectively traces the transition from historic mining-era gulches like Hall Valley to the modern highway system of US Highway 285.
