About this map

The settlement of Pando sits along the Eagle River in this high-altitude section of the White River National Forest. The landscape is defined by the steep gulches and high peaks of the Colorado Rockies, including Hornsilver Mtn, Resolution Mtn, and the edge of Copper Mountain. Historical infrastructure is visible through features like Wurts Ditch and the Old Highway Trail, which trace the difficult geography of the region.

Outdoor recreation and historical transit routes are prominent, with the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail winding through Eagle Park and past Rule Gulch. To the south, the small settlement of Mitchell lies near Taylor Hill, while numerous named gulches such as McAllister Gulch and Silver Gulch reveal the rugged drainage patterns that feed into Homestake Cr and the E Fork Eagle River. This survey captures the modern utility of a landscape historically vital for mountain training and transcontinental passage.
