About this map

Mount Werner dominates the western skyline of this high-altitude landscape, where the Park Range and Gore Range converge. This 2011 survey illustrates a complex hydrological network defined by the Fish Creek Reservoir and numerous glacial basins such as Lake Percy, Fishhook Lake, and Lake Elmo. The terrain is marked by significant water management infrastructure, including the Long Lake Dam and Muddy Creek Dam near Dumont Lake.

Outdoor recreation and seasonal access are central to this area's character, evidenced by the presence of the Granite Campground, Walton Creek Campground, and the Base Campground. Connectivity through this wilderness is provided by backcountry routes like the Buffalo Park Trl and forest access roads including RCR 310 and Co RD 199. The drainage patterns of Walton Creek and Fishhook Creek provide a detailed look at the watershed geography of Routt County during the early 21st century.
