2017 Map of Pikes Peak

About this map

Pikes Peak and the high ridges of the Flint Creek Range dominate this landscape along the boundary of Granite and Powell Counties. Much of the territory falls within the Deerlodge National Forest, where a complex network of alpine lakes and mining-related drainages suggests a long history of exploration and water management. High-altitude features like Princeton Gulch, Eureka Ridge, and Horseshoe Basin speak to the area's mineral-focused past, while numerous water bodies such as Bielenberg Lake, Potato Lakes, and Altoona Lakes are clustered in the high basins. The terrain is deeply carved by watercourses like Gold Cr and Royal Gold Cr, which flow through steep gulches toward the lower valleys. This map shows the area as it was recorded in 2017, illustrating the modern management of these remote mountain lands via forest roads like Co RD 5153 and Emery Ridge Rd.
