2019 Map of Pierce Gulch

About this map

Concrete sits along the northern bank of the Arkansas River in this 2019 survey of the Fremont and Pueblo county border. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the river valley to the dissected uplands of Booth Mtn, with numerous drainages like Pierce Gulch and Green Gulch carving south toward the river. This modern topographic record shows a complex network of numbered streets and specialized trails such as Top Notch Trl and Kodiak Trl, reflecting the area's development and recreational usage. The engineering of the high desert is visible in the Beaver Park Ditch and the path of the Old Portland Rd, which trace the contours of the land. These features illustrate the intersection of historical water rights and contemporary access in the rugged canyons north of the river, providing a precise look at how the terrain around Red Creek and Salt Canyon is managed and navigated today.
