2013 Map of Mount Werner

About this map

Mount Werner dominates the western portion of this high-altitude landscape within the Routt National Forest, where the Continental Divide serves as a natural boundary between Routt, Jackson, and Grand counties. The area is defined by its extensive network of high-country water sources, including the Fish Cr Reservoir and numerous alpine lakes like Fishhook Lake and Lake Elmo. The 2013 survey illustrates the modern recreation infrastructure of the Park Range, showing established sites such as Walton Creek Campground, Granite Campground, and the Base Campground. Specialized backcountry access is documented through named routes like the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail NST and the curiously named Pete's Wicked Trail 1013.1, which thread through the drainage basins of Fish Cr and Walton Cr. The southern edge of the map is anchored by the corridor of Us HWY 40, providing a vital transit link across this steep terrain.
